Bury to Blackpool Bike Ride

Just over 3 weeks ago, Lynchy was working 7 days a week in Construction, working hard towards being self-employed & just enjoying life. Boxing day turned his life upside down, he was rushed to Hope hospital after collapsing at home with bleeds on the brain & a stroke. He's only 35. He had his first Brain operation that evening, but unfortunately it wasn't enough & the day after he had to be rushed back to surgery for his 2nd surgery to remove part of his skull to release the pressure. Only last week, he was told that a scan had found an aggressive brain tumour. That was a huge knock back but his strength & positivity has blown us all away. We are all so very proud of him. He has made amazing progress in the last few weeks, speaking again, learning to swallow & just generally coming round to the fact that in the next week or so, he’ll be finding out what his treatment options are.

The reason we are fundraising is because he doesn’t receive sick pay which is standard within construction. So anything we can get will cover his bills for the next few months when he will most likely be still in hospital & to take the huge pressure off him, so he can concentrate on the most important things, like getting the movement back in his left side & getting home to his dog, Rosie.
