This month, the founder of the Ballito Cancer Support Network (BCSN), Jaime Ernst delivered a sincerely moving and personal message to the guests.
Jaime shared her personal experiences of the traumatic effect of cancer. Her brother, Chris, succumbed to leukaemia whilst she was undergoing radical treatment for breast cancer, from which she is currently in remission. As a qualified Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurse, Jamie has a deep understanding of the importance of compassionate support for cancer sufferers and their families and her aim is for this to be readily available to the Dolphin Coast community
Since it started in 2008 the BCSN has helped more than two hundred families dealing with the shock of the diagnosis of cancer, coping with radiation treatment, chemotherapy and its effects and finally with cancer at an advanced stage, right through to terminal care. The support given is practical and personal.
The Este Lauder Breast Cancer Awareness lunch was a celebration of life, love and unity. Book your seat for next month's event, call The Beverly Hills Hotel on 031 - 561 2211.
