TESTIMONIALS

Carol

Breast cancer survivor

“As a patient of Prof Bruce Mann and Dr Dean Trotter, I have been touched and humbled by the level of care that I have received via the breast service of the Royal Women’s and Royal Melbourne hospitals.

I am a mid-40 year old wife/mother/friend and I am no different to any other person. However, in 2018, I underwent a bi-lateral mastectomy and reconstruction surgery and was fortunate to have 2 of the best surgeons do what they do best.”

Maggie

Mindfulness program participant
(Treasure Chest pays for the psychologist who facilitates the program)

“Thank you so much for encouraging me to attend the mindfulness group as part of the Royal Women's.

The exercises I learnt in the class taught me how to deal with each thought and to let it go.”

Emilia

Breast cancer survivor

“I was eager to donate to any charity to help find a cure for this insidious disease, cancer. One day speaking with Monique, she mentioned Treasure Chest.

I had heard about Treasure Chest because they fund the scalp cooling cap machine, which I had tried during my first dose of chemo.”

Nicole

Recipient of Prestige In-Home care, thanks to Treasure Chest Charity

“Prestige In-home Care found me a lovely carer, who I get along really well with and when I have to change the schedule, to attend medical appointments, they have always been understanding and been able to support shifts for me.

It felt really good to have this ongoing support funded by Treasure Chest, it’s given me a sense of value.”

Joy

Carer at Prestige In-home Care.

“Each client through Treasure Chest has appreciated the help and support; Including listening and comforting them with kind words and a hug at emotional times. I truly enjoy helping and doing my best to be positive and happy whilst attending to these beautiful people.”
