Cancer is a word that carries an undeniable weight—a weight that touches us all in one way or another. My Aunties and  brother's journey with cancer and the heartbreaking loss of my dear friend Stacey just last year have all deeply impacted me. These experiences have ignited a fire within me to take action, and I am honored to share that I’ve been invited to participate in "Dance for Cancer," a fundraising initiative to support cancer research and awareness.

Now, let me be upfront: I’m a strong introvert so dancing on stage isn’t exactly my strong suit. In fact, let's just say I can't dance to save my life! But when it comes to saving lives, I’m more than willing to step onto that dance floor—even if my moves leave everyone grinning (or cringing). This event isn’t about being the next Micheal Flatley ; it’s about raising funds, spreading hope, and honoring those we've lost and those still fighting.

At Nua skin , over the years, we’ve identified skin cancers on our clients, and each time, it’s a reminder of how crucial early detection is. Being able to help someone catch skin cancer early and knowing that this has made a difference in their lives is an incredibly heartfelt and rewarding aspect of our work. It’s moments like these that reaffirm why prevention and awareness are so important—not just in our clinics but also in the broader fight against cancer.

"Dance for Cancer" offers an opportunity to raise funds and shine a spotlight on the importance of ongoing cancer research. For me, this event is a heartfelt tribute to Stacey's memory, a gesture of support for my Auntie and my brother, and a commitment to helping families and individuals affected by cancer.

I invite our wonderful Nua skin community and beyond to join me in this journey. Let’s turn every laugh (and step) into hope for a future where cancer is no longer a heavy weight but a conquered challenge. Whether you wish to donate, cheer on participants, or simply spread the word, every effort counts in the fight against cancer.

Dancing might not be my forte, but pouring my heart into this cause certainly is. So, here’s to the courage to try, the strength to inspire, and the hope to make a difference—one clumsy step at a time .

Go raibh maith agat as do thacaìocht!

(A million thanks for your support)
