A Queensland mother-of-two has organised and attended her own living funeral after being diagnosed with terminal stage-four bowel cancer.
Kelly Hardy, 44, was first diagnosed with bowel cancer in August 2019, when a scan revealed inoperable tumours were growing in her liver and lungs.
The Gold Coast mother, who worked for her family s fencing business, had experienced no symptoms apart from some mild stomach discomfort.
After being told she had 12 months to live, Ms Hardy decided to throw herself a living funeral to celebrate her life alongside her closest family and friends.
