Kellie Finlayson was diagnosed with bowel cancer at the age of 25, shortly after giving birth to her daughter.
She spoke about getting her diagnosis and how she had to remain strong for her family in the face of her terminal illness.
She opened up about the experience of getting diagnosed on Ant Middleton's Nova podcast Head Game.
"I kind of had to try and process that, while also trying to keep my head strong, funnily enough, so that my husband didn't crumble, because I needed him to be able to parent as well," she said.
"I wasn't the normal mum that she should have had, but I was as good as I possibly could be. It was hard," she added about her daughter.
