22.01.2022 Did you know that not all Breast Cancers go bump in the night? * * Besides lumps, any dimpling or puckering upon your heavenly body are also signs that you shou...ld fly to the GP for tests. Early detection saves lives. * * Pinkoala loves you to the Moon and back * * #pinkoala #pinkoalaart #breastcancerawareness #breastcancer #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerwarrior #earlydetection #earlydetectionsaveslives #checkyourboobs #cancersucks #cancersurvivor #pinkribbon #pinkribbons #moon #tothemoonandback #moonwalk #koalasofinstagram #digitalart #kawaiiaesthetic #procreate #australianart #melbourneartist #space #galaxyart #spacebear #stars See more
21.01.2022 I get by with a little help from my friends..... * * Have you experienced the friend-fallout-phenomena that often occurs when cancer enters your life? *... * Where your closest, and most cherished life-long, do-anything-for-you friends suddenly disappear when you need them most?? * * Youre definitely not alone on this one. Its not your fault- it happens for all sorts of reasons- and its absolutely heartbreaking..... BUT- * * Pinkoala prefers to dwell on the positive-and would LOVE to hear more about your Post Cancer diagnosis friends! Are they not some of the best people you could ever meet?! Friends that you may not have ever even met without your diagnosis bringing you together. * * Unlikely friendships, forged in hard times are the most beautiful and powerful of all Tag the beautiful friends in your life who have helped you survive #pinkoala #pinkoalaart #koalas #koalasofinstagram #dragon #dragonart #dragonartwork #dragonboat #friends #friendshipgoals #breastcancer #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerawareness #pinkribbon #breastcancerwarrior #fightcancer #igetbywithalittlehelpfrommyfriends #procreateart #digitalart #melbourneart #australianart #chemo #unlikelyfriends #womensupportwomen #cancersurvivor #illustration #kawaiiaesthetic

19.01.2022 Self care is a priority and a necessity, not a luxury. * * Too many times we put ourselves last. Even in the midst of cancer treatments, many of us find ways to... prioritise everything but ourselves! Try and remember that your future self will thank you for taking some me time. * * Doesnt need to be expensive or time consuming either- Slow down and make some quiet time for body and mind. Take a long eucalyptus bubble bath, or a few extra minutes to tizzy up your gumnuts..... * * What tips and tricks would you recommend for great self care? Its so important right now. * * This Illustration is based on the incredible #drawthisinyourstyle challenge set by the very talented @pernilleoerum Hope you like it #pinkoala #pinkoalaart #dtiys #dtiyspernilleorum #drawthisinyourownstyle #selfcare #selfcaretips #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerwarrior #breastcancerawareness #breastcancernow #breastcancersucks #breastcancernetworkaustralia #procreateart #melbourneartist #australianartist #womenshealth #littleluxuries #healthandwellness #womensupportwomen #girlsinanimation #cancercare #chemo #gumnuts #dailyart #artistsoninsta @ Melbourne, Victoria, Australia See more

15.01.2022 Its Pancake Tuesday! * * Pinkoala wants to take this golden opportunity to remind you not to forget about the other important, and regular squishfest on the c...alendar.....Mammograms. * * Ladies in Australia- did you know that Mammograms are free via Breast Screen from the age of 40, NOT 50 which is more widely advertised? * * Also, remember to ASK for your Breast Density details, as you can not tell if you have dense breasts just from feeling them. Only a mammogram can give you this information. Dense Breasts could compromise your mammography images, and an ultrasound may be required to pick up any nasties. * * Early detection saves lives. * * #pinkoala #pinkoalaart #pinkaesthetic #pancake #pancakes #pancakes #pancaketuesday #shrovetuesday #mammogram #mammogramssavelives #earlydetection #earlydetectionsaveslives #breastcancer #breastcancerawareness #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerwarrior #pinkribbon #cancersucks #melbourneart #australianart #breastscreen #breastcancernow #womensupportwomen #canat40doat45 See more
13.01.2022 ***Important Announcement regarding 2022*** Dear fellow paddlers, Since our festival bulletin of last week, we have received hundreds of emails from team manage...rs saying they were so happy we were continuing with the festival registration opening on 1 April/31st March 2020. Thank you to those of you who sent these emails as we feel incredibly heartened by your messages. We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your encouragement and support. However, we believe that given how quickly things are moving globally and whilst we in New Zealand have managed to contain the virus so far, with no community transmission and no deaths, we understand that globally this is not the situation and we are definitely not wearing rose-tinted glasses. This is a very testing time for all. We understand the varying impacts this crisis has on individuals such as employment, access to services and so on. Many countries are in total lock down with limited access to banks, and whilst the payment method for registration is by Internet banking (e-banking/bank to bank transfers conducted from your home or office) we do understand that some countries do not have this facility in place and instead need to go to a bank. The Festival Organisers (AWTO Trust) has, therefore, made the decision, in conjunction with the IBCPC Future Festival Committee, to delay the opening of registration until 1 June 2020 (with the early-bird registration offer being transferred to the 1st June 2020). As previously advised, we want to ensure that you are aware that registration will remain open until 31 March 2021, unless the festival is fully subscribed earlier. If you cannot register on opening day, then do not worry as you have plenty of time to do so afterwards. Supporters, individuals and part teams (as in you do not have a full team) registrations will open 1st July 2020. Most importantly we want you to stay well and safe and take care of each other and we sincerely thank you for all the incredibly supportive and encouraging emails we have received from so very many of you. Stay well, stay safe,
