Vicky
Vicky passed away on Thursday 26 February 2026.
After nearly 30 months of fighting, it finally was too much for her.
I have lost my best friend and the girl I have loved for over 40 years. Our family has lost a beautiful woman who will be missed so very much.
A couple of weeks ago we found out that the latest round of chemotherapy had not worked. This was Vicky’s last chance, but it wasn’t enough.
While Vicky wanted to pass away at home, timing and health issues did not allow that to happen. That being said we have appreciated the care and support provided by the Calvary Mater, and in particular the haematology team.
We have always been positive about her treatment, but there has always been the understanding that acute myeloid leukaemia and her variation, KMT2A, is aggressive and resistant to treatment.
We nearly lost her in November 2023, so whilst it’s been hard going it has also meant that we had time to enjoy the wonderful world of Vicky.
Love to you all.
Together we will keep their star shining bright
Hello friends & family,
I am sharing this page with you as someone I love and care about deeply has been affected by blood cancer.
I want to honour their memory by lighting the way for future Australians affected by blood cancer by supporting the work of the Leukaemia Foundation. And I want a future where no lives are lost to blood cancer.
A donation in memory of our loved one means their legacy will have a lasting impact for years to come.
Their life will continue to help all Australians with blood cancer access the best treatments, care and support they need to survive, and thrive no matter their background or where they live. Their legacy will power ground-breaking research meaning fewer families will be going through what we are in the future.
Please help me honour their legacy by using the 'Donate' button. The more people who know about the Leukaemia Foundation's work, the greater their impact, so please spread the word by sharing my page with your friends, family and colleagues.
Thank you in advance for your generosity. You will be giving an incredible gift of hope.
Thank you for your kind support

I spied Vicky one day, all wrapped up and zooming around with her zero turn like an ATV and this summarises my impression of her. To not let anything get in the way of living a full and wonderful life. The world is a duller place without her in it. With deepest condolences
