Help My Daughter Live Her Final Chapter to the Fullest

Donation protected
My name is Phil, and I’m a father to the most courageous young woman I know.

My daughter has been battling osteosarcoma since 2022 — a brutal and aggressive form of bone cancer. In that time, she has endured more than most of us could imagine. After a life-changing surgery, she lost the use of her leg and has relied on a wheelchair since. Still, she has faced every step of this journey with bravery, grace, and strength that continues to inspire everyone who knows her.

This cruel disease has already taken so much from our family — including her mum, who we lost to bone cancer in 2017.
Doctors have urged her to start doing anything important she wants to do, and to do it soon. While they can’t give us an exact timeline, they’ve made it clear that the next few weeks and months are precious.

So that’s what we’re going to focus on — living.

We are raising funds to help my daughter spend this final chapter of her life the way she deserves: beautifully, fully, and on her own terms. Whether that’s spending time by the sea, taking a trip she’s always dreamed of, or even helping her marry her partner — someone who’s been her rock through it all — we want to make these moments possible for her.

To support this, my partner and I will be walking 26 miles along the Jurassic Coast — a tough challenge, but nothing compared to what my daughter faces every single day. Every step will be for her. Every mile a tribute to her fight, her light, and her love of life.

We know we can’t change the outcome, but we can change the way this story ends.

If you can give anything — even a small amount — it will go directly toward helping my daughter find peace, joy, and love in the time she has left.

Thank you for reading, for sharing, and for walking beside us in spirit.

With love and hope,
Phil
