We are delighted to invite you to celebrate the release of Dancing with Jack on Thursday 29 January at the Adam Armstrong Pavilion, Dalkeith.

We are honoured to welcome special guest Professor Arlene Chan for this special evening.

Dancing with Jack is a raw, honest, and ultimately hopeful memoir that takes readers on one woman’s intimate journey through breast cancer. With courage, humour, and an unflinching eye, J.F. MacDonald invites us into the dance of life — from despair to joy, exhaustion to delight, and all the moments in between.

This powerful book offers profound insight into the challenges of living with cancer, the resilience required to navigate them, and the beauty that can be found even in the hardest times. On this evening, we honour the life, love, and spirit of the author, and share in the legacy she leaves through her writing, her family, and the countless lives she touched.

All book sales and proceeds are donated to Breast Cancer Research Centre-WA. 'Dancing with Jack' Hard copies and pre orders will be available at the event. 

We warmly welcome you to join us for the launch of Dancing with Jack.

Please RSVP so we can plan for attendance and refreshments.
