Support My Ride to Conquer Cancer?
Welcome to my Personal Page! The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, is a cycling journey throughout Victoria's scenic countryside that I?m embarking on to fight cancer. It will be a challenge in a number of ways, but with my bike, my helmet, and your generosity, a real impact will be made!
Contribute to this history-making event with a donation. Funds raised in The Ride to Conquer Cancer will support Peter Mac, the only public hospital in Australia solely dedicated to cancer.
This story begins with the death of my brother Barry at the age of only 67. He was a robust, vital man, and had only got married in August last year. He was then diagnosed with prostrate cancer, which expanded into brain and bone cancer. He lived for 8 months after his wedding.
I went to New Zealand to see him, and spent 12 days living with him, and made this observation....he who lives with a dying man, understands his own mortality... I then got a tatto on my forearm in memory of him. Thats the picture on my page. This is a small thing that I can do, to try and find a cure for this insidious condition. I hope that all who read this, can make a donation, to help me achieve my goal, of fundraising.
Many thanks from the bottom of my heart, and I am sure Barry would be greatful also.
