The recent passing of Jane McGrath (the wife of former test bowler, Glen McGrath) after a long battle with metastatic Breast Cancer has struck a chord in the hearts of people all over the country.
Jane was obviously a woman who dedicated a large portion of her life to inspiring strength, courage and survival amongst women struggling against the ravages of Breast Cancer today. Having the resources to place herself, her foundation and her voice in the faces of the Australian public is of invaluable consequence when it comes to raising not only funds, but more importantly awareness about cancer prevention, treatment and support services. Her bravery and contribution to this cause deserves all the recognition in the world, and obviously my sympathy and thoughts are with the McGrath family during this difficult time.
All I ask is this - look at Jane and appreciate the work she has done. Appreciate all that she achieved in her short lived life. But do not forget those that she worked for. Remember those countless, nameless faces who struggle and suffer and every single day just as Jane did.
These people should be your heroes, your inspiration and your strength. They are mine.
