Notes

Connie Johnson was an Australian philanthropist. She suffered from bone cancer at age 11, uterine cancer at age 22 and finally breast cancer at age 33. She founded the Love Your Sister charity in 2012 with her brother, well-known Australian actor Samuel Johnson. Initially, Kristen Henry interviewed Connie to promote the Love Your Sister charity and its Big Heart Project. However, they formed a friendship and we were invited into her hospice room for one last final chat to Kristen, and the media, before she passed away. This video hit 1.3million views on news.com.au
