PYRAMID Hill’s Ladies’ Day gathering on Saturday in support of breast cancer research was made more poignant with a moving address from netballer Mikayla Parker-Caldwell.
Mikayla was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023 but after enduring chemotherapy treatment and having other preventative surgery, she was declared to be in remission six months ago.
Her message to family, friends, team mates and supporters (including her two young daughters) was a simple one - don’t be afraid to go to a doctor if you have any concerns.
All the Bulldogs netballers sported special bright pink socks for the day, and fundraising for Breast Cancer Network Australia included raffles for prizes including a photography session, a bountiful hamper, spa vouchers, a three-month pilates membership and even a pink and white netball.
