Story
That's right bitches...I'm back!
As most of you will know, I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer in March 2020 and luckily seem to be coming out the other side and on my way to remission!
With a heavy heart myself and friends know this isn't always the case, so I feel blessed to have this opportunity to grow strong and get back to full health in due course.
With that said, is there a better way do this than the VLM2021 in the name of my brother Darel Bryan again?? No, I hear you cry. Well it's happening. It maybe a lot slower and a tiny bit more painful. But I know DB7 and my friends/family will be with me every step of the way.
Right, get your wallets out as I've got 8 weeks to get into shape. Thanks as always and links below for my man DB7.
See you on Sunday October 3rd 2021!
Darel was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Multiforme an extremely aggressive brain tumour in 2014, when he was just 33 years old. Darel bravely fought this cruel disease for 15 months but sadly lost his battle February 26th 2016. Darel was a gentle and kind soul who made an impression on anyone he met and touched everyone's hearts. His bravery throughout his diagnosis was awe inspiring and his sense of humour and beautiful smile never wavered.
Darel's partner Natalie has set up 'The Darel Bryan Foundation' in honour of Darel, so we can carry on fighting. With your help we would love to raise more awareness for brain tumours and to fund much needed research. So not only we can gain a better understanding to what the causes of brain tumours are, but to have better treatment options available for future patients. Hopefully one day there can be a better outcome for those diagnosed with this devastating disease.
The Darel Bryan Foundation is an umbrella group under Brain Tumour Research who we are very proud to work with. They have several dedicated research centres throughout the UK, where vital research is happening. It costs £1 million per year to run one of these centres.
Through your donations we hope to be able to contribute towards this invaluable research. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your support!
