A Lot To Talk About Fine Kula's Battle With Brain Cancer.
Fine Kula spent the early years of his life in South Auckland before being scouted by the Cronulla Sharks at the ripe age of 13.
Moving with his family to Sydney, Fine was in a new school, living a new life & playing to earn his spot at the Sharks. After winning the Harold Matthews under 16's & Toyota Cup under 20's premiership with Cronulla, Fine found himself training amongst the NRL squad.
With 2019 coming to a close, so was the first half of pre-season. Heading into the Christmas/New Year break Fine was experiencing headaches that would last days on end. Seeking doctors advice he was told that he was most likely suffering bad migraines & was sent home. Coming back to finish the pre-season in 2020 a day after his 21st birthday, Fine looked for a second opinion from the Cronulla Sharks doctor who sent him to hospital from training that day to get an MRI scan.
Within days Fine alongside his partner & family were sat in front of doctors who would give him the unfortunate news he never expected. Diagnosed with Sonic Hedgehog Medulloblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, Fine's life changed in a matter of moments.
Thrust into treatment immediately whilst trying to comprehend the magnitude of the situation, at first he was upset by the thought that this may be the end of his footy career but quickly he was motivated to get through this to ensure he can spend many years to come watching his niece & nephews grow up & spending precious time with the people he loves.
Maintaining a focused approach on coming through his treatment & getting healthy again, let's get behind Fine & ensure he is surrounded by positive energy as he faces this challenge. He & his family have been overwhelmed by the support of the community & are grateful for all the well wishes & motivating messages.
