LaVerne was diagnosed with breast #cancer in 2018. She is a breast cancer survivor, a mother & leader in her community. “I just wanted to deal with it the best way I knew how. Deep down, I just wanted to put all my energy into living.”

At the #NACCHOConference22 cancer workshop it was highlighted the fact that cancer rates are decreasing among most Australians but not for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people

Today is World Sight Day.
Over one third of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have never had an eye exam.
To protect our eyes and our deadly vision in the future, NACCHO encourages everyone to go out and get an eye exam and keep those healthy eyes!!

Keep the culture beautiful and strong. Then pass it on to the next seven generations — and beyond.

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

‘The Corn Mother, Corn Maiden, or Yellow Woman is the nourishment aspect of the Goddess and is most commonly associated with grain harvest. She is the Mother Goddess who nurtures those around her with food and is the conceptual representation of ‘what we will reap —we will sow.’

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

‘In Cherokee mythology, Selu was the First Woman and goddess of the corn. Selu was killed by her twin sons, who feared her power; but with her dying instructions she taught them to plant and farm corn — so that her spirit was resurrected with each harvest.’
