Help create memories for Damian battling rare cancer!

Hello, I am doing a fundraiser on behalf of Riverside nursery!

We are aiming to raise money to help Damian and Jess create memories with their young children. Sophia 4 (Step daughter) and lily 1 (Damians daughter) The fundraiser will take part on the 17th May and the staff at riverside will be walking 10k in order to raise awareness for the rare cancer type which is chordoma.

Damian has a rare type of cancer which unfortunately has no life saving treatment, due to this he is limited on what time he has left with his beautiful family.

Please help us in reaching their goal.

This is a message from Damian himself:

“So Chordoma is a bone cancer and it comes from what’s called the notochord. The notochord grows in an embryo to help develop the spine, once it’s done developing the spine it is meant to vanish. On the rare occasion when it doesn’t go away it can cause a Chordoma to slowly develop. It can either form at one of 4 locations within the spine (the sacrum, the lumbar region, the thoracic region or the clival region) in my case it was in the sacrum and this was successfully removed in June 2024. I was due to undergo Proton Beam Therapy in August but reoccurrence was found at T11 & T10 in the Thoracic region of my spine and this made me no longer eligible for the proton beam therapy. Since then more and more lesions have appeared at different locations of my spine , ribs, my pelvis and my organs and there is no treatment available to cure me now and I’ve been told that this will lead to loss of life further down the line. The staff who are providing my care since told me that I’ve got a prognosis of between 10 months to 2 years. Even the medicine they fought for me to get isn’t working so they are trying to keep me as comfortable as possible until the inevitable happens. I am focusing on making memories with my family in the mean time and remembering the good times. Thank you all for reading”
