I will walk with my lantern because...
I’m Mitch, Lana’s biggest fan, and now one of the people making sure her story keeps going.
Lana passed away in 2023 from lung cancer. She was far more than a diagnosis, a statistic, or another sad story about cancer. She was funny, fiercely herself, and had a way of looking at the world that made the ordinary stuff feel a little less ordinary.
She also meant it when she said she wanted to make people laugh and make them think about lung disease. That’s why I’m still raising awareness for Lung Foundation Australia, in her name.
Lung cancer is Australia’s biggest cancer killer, and it doesn’t only happen to smokers or to people in their 70s. Lana was 30 when she was diagnosed. Join me for the walk in Melbourne or Pls attend a walk in your area.
