RIP Joe, another taken way to early due to this terrible disease. It is my hope that one day fundraising for cancer research will no longer be required.

My Story

21 Jun 2024

This August, will be my 7th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge. This annual event provides much needed funding and promotes awareness in the ongoing battle to end cancer among our young children. I was diagnosed with cancer in 2019. After 4 surgeries and numerous chemo treatments I was very fortunate to announce a clean bill of health until now. Cancer has once again decided to rear its ugly head. I am currently undergoing treatment, which may very well effect my ability to cycle. I am trying my best to maintain a positive attitude, and am hoping to be able to continue to participate in this worthy cause in helping to raise much needed funds and awareness for years too come. So many young children and adults have either lost their courageous battle or continue to fight. It is only with the continued support of so many generous and caring donors that vital research can continue. Cancer is responsible for the deaths of over 1,400 young children in Canada each year. It is my hope, and the hope of many that one day cancer will no longer effect the lives of so many of our children. Young kids should be living life, not fighting for it. I am raising funds through my challenge to help these young children and to support "Sick Kids Foundation". Please support me by making a donation to give these young children the bright futures they deserve. Your continued support is very much appreciated and will change many little lives and families.

Thank you.
