Stories
Amber
Olga’s daughter, Amber, overcame chronic fatigue syndrome
Amber was on holiday from uni. She’d given up her job and she wasn’t going to the gym. She was eating well, taking iron tablets and resting, but she still felt overwhelmed by tiredness. She just couldn’t do anything.
Kristine
Kristine’s rollercoaster journey with cancer
Kristine has spent nearly five years living with cancer, which she describes as a rollercoaster journey. “CBHS rang me to see how I was, and they told me about the additional support services that I didn't even know existed.”
Carol & Jake
Carol and her son Jake both experienced atrial fibrillation
Fifty-four-year old Carol B and her family live at Airlie Beach, on the Whitsunday coast in north Queensland. It's an ideal environment for someone as keen on healthy living as Carol. Carol has never smoked, she always been a healthy weight and she’s stays active, but the last couple of years have presented a few challenges for her, as well as for her son Jake.
