Bobby's Battle

Bobby was recently diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. By the time he found out, it was too late to operate. Bobby was presented with two options: chemotherapy that would give him 9-12 months or opting out of chemotherapy leaving him with 6-9 months left with his friends and family. For those of you that know Bobby, you know he's a fighter. In 2016, Bobby faced his first fight with cancer, emerging victorious after a hard fought battle with leukemia. Bobby is well known in his community but perhaps he's most known around the hockey rink. He's been a long time volunteer with the Saskatoon Blades, and after returning to the rink in 2016, the Blades named their annual training camp tournament after Bobby; "The Kirkness Cup". 

After discussing with his friends and family, Bobby has decided to try an alternative treatment to maintain his quality of life and hopefully prolong his time here with his friends and family. Unfortunately this alternative treatment is not covered and will be costing Bobby and his family approximately $1000/month. 

After all these years of Bobby donating his time to his community, we are asking you to donate something back to Bobby, if you're fortunate enough to be able to do so, so that Bobby and his family can enjoy their time together without having a financial burden to deal with.
