When I was diagnosed with a rare and highly advanced stage of cancer at the age of 32, my outlook was negative. But with ground-breaking therapy, I’ve been given the gift of time to continue building a life with my beautiful wife and to experience the wonders of life as a new dad.

This is my story… 

Cancer research has changed so much in recent years. I couldn’t be more grateful for the hard work that led to my treatment, just like the research Cancer Council invests in right here in South Australia.

To each of you who has contributed to cancer research, thank you for making this possible.

To hear more about other South Australians who have benefitted from your generous support in the past year, please read the latest Impact Report.

Enjoy spending treasured time with your loved ones, knowing that by supporting Cancer Council SA, you’ve given me the chance to do the same.

Best wishes,

Ryan Hodges
Cancer Council SA Ambassador
