2025 Cancervive

I'm fundraising for Brent

I recently joined the Cancervive Ride for Wellspring. This ride raises funds for people living with cancer through Wellspring Alberta. I invite you to help me reach my fundraising goal as I participate in a 1-day bike ride through Banff National Park.

I am cycling to support those living with cancer and their caregivers. Did you know 1 in 2 Albertans will get cancer in their lifetime? Wellspring Alberta is a charitable organization that supports, informs and empowers anyone diagnosed with any type of cancer, their caregivers and their families. They offer a comprehensive range of evidence-informed programs and resources free of charge and without referral, all under the vision that no one has to face cancer alone.

Every dollar makes a difference in the lives of someone living with cancer. Please consider supporting me in my efforts to have a positive impact on someone's life.

My reasons why!!!!

Tuesday 12th Aug
Cancer has always had a place in my family. From aunts and uncles to my grandparents, cancer has always taken from me. 
Then came one of the biggest shocks, my best friend Brent. He has diagnosed 4 years ago with pancreatic cancer. This was a guy that never smoked or drank and who was a year younger than myself and all of a sudden was stricken with one of the worst forms of cancer.
For the last 4 years he has been going through hell and has managed to keep a positive attitude( hence the reason he still here today) even though the have bombarded his body with high doses of chemo as well as a 14 hour surgery in Toronto. He has managed to get to and celebrate numerous goals(including his 50th birthday this year) and has plans on getting to many others as well.
My sister in law wanted to do a family building event and thought this would be a great way to honor his determination.
So here we go……
