Approximately six weeks ago, Michaela Phillips, a 38 year old mother of 4 beautiful children (18, 17, 15 and 3 years old) was diagnosed with aggressive stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Michaela received the heartbreaking news that her cancer was incurable, too far advanced for a mastectomy and that she could only receive a reduced dose of chemotherapy due to fluid in her liver caused by cancer there.
Michaela is an amazing mother to her children, and even while dealing with incredible pain and stress over the past couple of months, her children and their future have always been her primary concern.
Her sister Monique has taken leave from her work at REX airlines and in conjunction with their mother Anna, has moved in to care for Michaela and her children as she deals with this devastating diagnosis. Michaela is currently receiving palliative care in Wagga Wagga and we are aiming to raise money for Michaela and her children to take a holiday together if possible, or if Michaela is too unwell to travel, any money raised will go towards supporting her children.
