ERIN’S WALKING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE THIS MOTHER’S DAY
Erin’s first Mother’s Day Classic was in 2009. And today, she’s there each year with her family rain or shine.
Erin was 33 and had just given birth when she received her HER2+ breast cancer diagnosis. And sadly in 2020, she received more devastating news, her breast cancer was now metastatic and had spread to her liver, bones, lungs and brain. The disease flipped her world upside down twice, putting her through countless tests, hospital stays, invasive surgeries and more – all while raising her three kids.

But thanks to game-changing breast cancer research, most of Erin’s cancer has been removed, and her doctors can continue to manage the disease with positive results. Now, she loves getting involved in the Mother’s Day Classic (MDC), helping raise money for game-changing research, and supporting more women like her.
Erin is excited to celebrate Mother’s Day with her family at the Classic once again this year. We’d like to thank her and every MDC superstar for coming to the Classic each year and making a difference for the many women like Erin who are living with breast cancer.
If you’d like to join us at MDC this year, you can sign up here www.mothersdayclassic.com.au and raise money for lifechanging breast cancer research.
“I’m here enjoying life and watching my children grow because of the research and treatments that are helping people diagnosed with breast cancer live longer lives”.
– Erin, MDC Community Ambassador
