A 29-year-old Australian lady, Ali Moore, has graduated from law school while undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.

PEOPLE first reported about Moore’s graduation in its exclusive story.

She is said to have been diagnosed with early breast cancer at the age of 28.

According to PEOPLE, Moore was in the fourth week of her final semester of law school at the University of Sydney when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

The report said Moore, a Sydney resident, in July 2023, discovered a painful lump in her breast, and on the same day she underwent an ultrasound and biopsy.

Reports indicated that by August 2023, Moore received the diagnosis of early breast cancer.

She was quoted by PEOPLE as saying: “My diagnosis came as a huge shock – I am a very healthy person who always focused on eating well, exercising, and looking after myself. I had run 10km just days before my diagnosis, and I’d only just returned from a hiking trip in the Swiss Alps.”

She is said to have started law school school in 2020 after leaving her corporate communications job.

And in May this year while still undergoing chemotherapy treatment, she walked the stage during her school’s graduation to receive her diploma, posting a video from the ceremony on Tiktok.
