  • 09 Jul 2020

Australian pop princess and The Voice coach Delta Goodrem has taken to Instagram to share a poignant message to those battling cancer, exactly 17 years after fighting the disease herself.

WATCH: Delta Goodrem launches her charitable foundation

Just a week after launching the Delta Goodrem Foundation in partnership with St Vincent’s Hospital, where the singer received treatment herself, Delta has commemorated the anniversary of her diagnosis.

Taking to Instagram Delta, shared a photo captured while she was undergoing treatment.

The black and white shot shows the singer with a bare head performing at a piano.

“Today is July the 8th which was the day I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma when I was just 18. I will always take a moment this day each year to be grateful,” she wrote.

Seventeen years on from her 2003 diagnosis, Delta says she hopes those who are battling the disease can hold onto hope.

“What I love about this picture is that it is a reminder to still be creating music even in the toughest times. So, for those in the fight - Stay strong and you are not alone.”

Delta has given back to Sydney’s St Vincent’s Hospital by starting her new charity, which will fund medical research into blood cancers and auto-immune diseases.

Speaking about the launch of the foundation with St Vincent’s, Delta told The Daily Telegraph it was a “full circle moment coming back to the place that I really started this journey”.

“It means something great to be able to give back and really - in a concrete way - make a difference for positive change.”

“It’s extraordinarily special and I really hope that it will be one of my greatest legacies.”

To commemorate the recent International Nurses Day, the beloved Australian singer also teamed up with the nurses at St Vincent's Hospital to perform a rendition of her song, Together We Are One.
