HELPING HANDS TRIVIA NIGHT - ZOE MCPHERSON

Zoe is just five years old and has been diagnosed with hepatoblastoma, a rare and aggressive form of primary liver cancer.



After spending the morning at the Jacaranda Youth March with her twin sister Molly, Zoe began complaining of stomach pain. What was first thought to be appendicitis quickly became something far more serious when scans revealed a tumour on Zoe’s liver.

Zoe has since undergone major surgery to remove the tumour, along with her gallbladder, appendix and part of her stomach lining, and is now receiving chemotherapy and specialist care at the Queensland Children’s Hospital in Brisbane.

Since her diagnosis, Zoe, her twin sister Molly and parents Hannah and Brendan have spent extended periods away from home to ensure Zoe receives the care she needs. This ongoing treatment requires regular travel between Grafton and Brisbane, and at times weeks away from home, placing significant emotional and financial strain on the family through loss of income, travel costs and everyday living expenses.

This diagnosis has completely changed the lives of Zoe and her family. But with the support of the Clarence Valley community, we can help ease the financial burden and allow Zoe’s family to remain by her side, focusing on what matters most Zoe’s health, strength and recovery.
