If anyone was going to beat cancer three times, we thought Jane McGrath would be the one. She was a real fighter, and even as she waged her own battle with breast, hip, and brain tumours, she was determined to help others. As founder and president of The McGrath Foundation, she did - and her legacy will go on in her Breast Care Nurse project and the campaign to raise awareness amongst younger women.
We salute this beautiful woman who died on Sunday 22 June 2008.

I cried my eyes out when she died. She visited my friend, Andie, when she was in hospital after her mastectomy. She was a lovely, lovely person. I thought she’d make it. It’s such a terrible loss.

It is terribly sad. She was such a beacon of light for others going through cancer treatment and surgery.
