Little Lori had no idea the wool off a sheep’s back could help her family in her fight against cancer — but it did.
In true country town spirit, when local farmers heard the tiny tot had been diagnosed with a Wilms tumour in September 2014, they desperately wanted to help.
While her parents, Simon and Caylee Perry, kept a bedside vigil in Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital — 140km from their home in Nagambie — the community herded hundreds of sheep and held a shearing fundraiser day.
They raised a staggering $10,000.
Donations continued to roll in through other fundraisers and auctions between Nagambie and Rushworth, with more than $50,000 given to the Perry family.
Mrs Perry, a mother of two with another on the way, said the financial boost allowed them to focus on Lori’s health and not worry about the everyday bills that continued to rack up.
“We are very blessed and thankful,” Mrs Perry said.
She says Lori has become such a local celebrity, everyone greets her when she’s in town.
