Finding the Strength to Fight - Orlaith Donlon

Gold Ribbon Conversations - The podcast that supports those fighting Childhood Cancer.

A rare form of Cancer arrived uninvited into Orlaith's worlds just over 2 years ago.

A limp and a parents intuition led them towards tests, scans and a cancer diagnosis for their 3 year old boy. 

Here we talk about the waiting, the need to know what’s wrong, the relief when a team swoop in with a plan and loved ones swoop in with endless support. We talk about falling apart and about putting pieces back together again. 

And the hope that this chapter is over and only good days ahead.

Childhood Cancer Ireland is charity founded by and led by parents of children with cancer who know that one of the greatest sources of strength for this fight, is conversation.

Six children, adolescents and young adults are diagnosed with cancer every week in Ireland and the Gold Ribbon which illuminates precious light, love, courage and compassion is a symbol of strength and solidarity for each and every one. 

As a non-government funded organisation, Childhood Cancer Ireland values every single donation.
