Actor Samuel Johnson is urging his followers to fulfill a woman with cancer’s last dream after he started a charity to fight the disease following the loss of his sister
Samuel Johnson has taken to social media to urge his followers to help make the dreams of a woman suffering from end-stage colon cancer come true.
The Australian actor, 44, took to Facebook via his charity page Love Your Sister that Keely Marinaccio, 35, had received the devastating news that she only had “days” to live.
The Victoria-born star added that it is Keely’s dying wish to raise $10,000 for his charity Love Your Sister, which is dedicated to “beating” cancer.

He wrote: “We have a chance to make your bucket list come true, but we don’t have much time left. Her friends and family are trying to get there, but I think the village may need to help her achieve her dream.
“What a way to go out. Like my sister, fundraising to the end,” he added.
Samuel shared a photo of him posing with a beaming Kealy wearing a hat that read “F**k Cancer.”

Keely was making progress toward her goal and at the time of writing her fundraising page, she had raised $9229 to reach her $10,000 goal.
Sam has dedicated himself to battling cancer after his sister Connie lost her battle with the disease in September 2017.
He previously revealed that he was dealing with the aftermath of his sister’s death.

“I can’t just recover from burying them and blindly move on,” an emotional Samuel told 9Honey in 2018.
Back in 2012, the siblings founded the charity Love Your Sister, which has since raised more than $7 million in the fight against cancer.
Sam is still working hard to raise funds for his charity but admitted it hasn’t been easy without Connie by his side.
“My mind just wasn’t involved. There was a lot of stuff that she left me that I had to make sense of,” he explained.
