Solariums Kill!
Sadly a duel battle has come to an end for 26 year old Melbourne girl Clare Oliver. Clare had both battled skin cancer and had been campaigning to raise the awareness of the dangers of solarium’s.Like many women Clare underwent for a course of solarium sessions a few years back. Clare wanted a tan. Sadly she ended out with more than she asked for.
This young lady was diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer.
At the young age of 25, Clare was told she only had a few weeks to live. Clare continued to raise awareness of the dangers of solarium’s. Touching the hearts of many Australians and hopefully altering people’s perceptions, Clare became more and more passionate about this campaign. Even with everything she went through, she kept fighting her case against solarium’s.
Sadly, she died in hospital this morning. It was a tragic death. I offer my sympathy to the friends and relatives of Clare and ask you all to respect Clare in continuing to campaign against solarium’s.
