Description

Tamara Dawes is a mum and primary school teacher living in New South Whales, who enjoys living in the country, going to the beach, and spending time with her family and their dog.

Around Easter time in 2021, Tamara had been dealing with some eczema and because of this had been performing frequent self-examinations when she noticed a lump in her breast. She booked in with her GP, who sent her for a mammogram, biopsy and ultrasound and two days later was diagnosed with breast cancer.

We spoke with Tamara about her shock diagnosis, navigating breast cancer with a young family and the importance of supporting breast cancer clinical trials research.
