September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and people are lighting social media up with gold themed post to draw attention to this very worthy cause.

Our community member, Lucy Anne Crosbie, is a parent who has felt the impact of childhood cancer firsthand. Her beautiful little girl Lavinia was diagnosed with retinoblastoma at the age of 8 months, and has endured endless cycles of chemotherapy, transfusions, operations and hickman lines to fight against this horrendous disease. Lucy is working tirelessly to raise awareness of retinoblastoma; awareness will mean more cases are caught early enough and save lives!

Here’s her latest post in support of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month – follow Lavinia’s journey here.
