About ALCCRF
Since 1996, Lions Australia has shown outstanding
commitment contributing over $10 million to
childhood cancer research. This effort has resulted
in, amongst other things, safer and more effective
blood stem cell transplantation for leukaemia
patients following chemotherapy which can lead
to shorter hospitalisation and more rapid recovery.
Lions have done a lot but the job is not over
because we believe every child has the right to
a healthy life. At the 57th National Convention
in Melbourne in May 2009, Lions established a
category ‘A’ Project to be known as Australian Lions
Childhood Cancer Research Foundation (ALCCRF).

Lions Kids Ava was just six-months-old when her mum, Jenny, heard her screaming, and ran into her to find Ava struggling to breathe, her eyes rolling into the back of her head and her lips turning blue. Without hesitation, Jenny put her in the car and drove her to the Emergency Department of Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick. Doctors originally thought Ava was choking on something, but after an examination failed to find any obstruction in her airway, she was put on a ventilator in the Intensive Care Unit. Ava was then sent for scans which, much to the shock of her distraught parents revealed a five and a half centimeter cancerous tumor called a neuroblastoma in her chest and abdomen. The cancer had also spread to her bones. Little Ava was immediately started on a course of chemotherapy treatment, and spent the next 15 days in the Intensive Care Unit until she was able to breathe on her own. Over the next 12 months, she was in and out of Hospital, during which she endured eight rounds of chemotherapy and three operations to try and rid her of the tumors, one of which was entwined around her spine and considered too dangerous to operate on. While doctors were deciding on the next step in Ava’s treatment, it was discovered that thankfully the inoperable tumor had matured and become non-cancerous. Ava was able to stop her intensive treatment. These days Ava is back home with her family but continues to visit the Hospital every three months for scans, which will eventually reduce to six-monthly scans, the longer she is in remission. Now a bubbly nine year old, Ava is out-going, bright and inquisitive and loves playing with her friends at school. “The staff at the Hospital was absolutely amazing, I could not fault anything,” Jenny said. “They treated Ava with so much care and make you feel part of a family, not just a patient.”
Lions Kids Willem Just before his second birthday Willem was falling ill with colds and ear infections and not getting better. Then his mum Michelle noticed a lot of bruises on his body. She took Willem to the doctor, where he underwent a blood test. A few hours later the results were in and the family were told to prepare for the worst – young Willem could have cancer. Michelle picked her two daughters up from school and took them to their grandparents, and then drove the four hours from their home at Young to Sydney and spent the night in Emergency with Willem. The next day he underwent a range of tests, which devastatingly confirmed Willem had Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. He was immediately started on a course of steroid treatment and then went through five rounds of chemotherapy, spending the majority of the next nine months in Hospital with his mum by his side, while Willem’s dad Mark stayed at home with their two young daughters. Willem suffered a number of side effects from his treatment including nausea, ulcers and also leg weakness where he didn’t leave his bed for two months. “Willem also stopped talking for a while, I think he was in shock from what was happening to him. He had no energy and just wasn’t himself,” Michelle said. Once Willem had undergone his initial treatment, he was put on maintenance chemotherapy for 18 months, which he could take at home, monitored by his local doctor and the Hospital’s Outreach Service for patients living in rural and regional areas. Willem is now in remission and has started pre-school. “He just loves pre-school and being able to do what other kids do like going to the park or swimming pool,” Michelle said. “He was left out of so much before and now his sense of humour has come back and he is enjoying being a normal kid.” “All of the staff at Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick go above and beyond what they’re paid to do, they are all fantastic and you couldn’t get through something like this without them all,” Michelle said.

Benji In July 2012, five year old Benji
went on holidays to Melbourne from her hometown
of Wagga Wagga with her family. She had always
been a happy, outgoing child but her parents Shaleen
and Nazeem noticed she had a temperature and
was becoming lethargic. When the family returned
home, they were about to take Benji to her local GP,
when she collasped and her eyes started rolling into
the back of her head. Her parents rushed her to the
local hospital, and she was found to be critically unwell
and severely anaemic. She was resuscitated and

According to Shaleen, Benji, who was normally on the
go all the time, didn’t get out of bed for seven weeks.
“She’s normally up and dancing around everywhere,
but she didn’t get out of bed,” she said. “It breaks
your heart to see your only daughter like that.”
Benji is still undergoing chemotherapy treatment and
flies in with her parents every ten days for four days
before flying back home to Wagga Wagga. But now
she has got some of her old spark back.
“She’ll be dancing around the ward, getting the
nurses and other patients up as well,” Shaleen said.
“She loves it, she’s such an inspiration.”
Lions Kids Hugo When Jane went in for a routine check-up with her obstetrician at 37 weeks pregnant, she did not expect to be holding newborn baby Hugo in her arms just a few hours later. The joy of Hugo’s quick and smooth arrival was soon replaced by anxiety when he developed feeding difficulties. At only 36 hours old, little Hugo was admitted to Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick, where he was diagnosed with Hirschsprung’s disease, a medical condition that affects the bowels causing chronic constipation. Hugo’s condition was managed until he was old enough to have more invasive surgery at seven months. His proud parents watched on as Hugo began eating well and smiling more often. “He turned into a happy little baby,” said his mum. Worryingly, only a few months later, his tummy swelled up and he began to have trouble breathing. Doctors found five separate tumours – each the size of a large peach – throughout his tiny body. After investigation, his doctors also determined that the tumours and the Hirschsprung’s disease had both developed due to an underlying rare genetic condition. Hugo underwent regular rounds of chemotherapy to combat the aggressive cancerous tumours. “Hugo lost all of his hair, but was otherwise in really high spirits and very resilient,” said Jane. Once he was big and strong enough, Hugo underwent a grueling nine hour operation, which successfully removed 95% of the remaining tumours. He recovered quickly in the Intensive Care Unit and was able to return home in time for Christmas with his family. “We were so happy with the care and treatment that Hugo received from the Hospital staff. They were always in tune with his needs,” said Jane. Earlier this year, however, a routine checkup showed that the tumours were slightly larger than before. Hugo continues to see a number of specialists at the Hospital to monitor and treat the slow growth. “Despite that, he is progressing very well. He has just started swimming lessons, enjoys playing with his two big brothers and is very excited to start daycare next year,” said Jane.
