MOWHAWK MADNESS

By Kate Twigg Join Me

I believe this is the future of ‘cancer treatment’, The Malaghan are doing some incredible research, right here in NZ. 

You never know who or when someone might need this incredible research to help them beat cancer. 

Too many of our loved ones are
dying and suffering from
diseases we don't know
enough about. But we do know
the immune system holds the
key to prevention, treatment
and cures.
Together we can harness the
power of the immune system 
and save lives’

Love
Kate

My Story

Monday 26th Sep
In November 2021 I was diagnosed with TNBC (triple negative breast cancer), I had 6 months of chemo, surgery, 5 weeks of radiation and 3 weekly infusions of Keytruda. 

My last bloods before one of my Keytruda infusions showed some abnormalities and I have since been diagnosed with ALL, leukaemia. I will be heading into hospital today for months of treatment, leaving behind my two beautiful girls 12,9 and husband Sam to navigate another year without their Mum/wife. 

I am mentally, physically and emotionally ready to tackle and fight, round 2 of this crappy disease. My spin bike will be delivered to the hospital tomorrow and I have my weights in my hand bag. 

Watch me beat Larry after already taken on Gary! 

Thank you so much for all your support and love ❤️ 

Thank you to my Sponsors
