A Canberra Dad Needs Our Help

  • A Canberra Dad Needs Our Help image

Chris Burke is a 40 year old dad to a 5 year old boy and a fiance, due to get married next year. He is also suffering from a metastatic osteosarcoma in his lungs, an aggressive cancer uncommon for a man his age.

After exhausting every treatment option in Australia, Chris is making the journey to a specialist cancer clinic in Mexico – as Chris believes this is his best, and possibly only chance to fight this disease.  Chris says his goal is simple; “I want to keep being the Dad my little boy needs, to see him grow, and to stand beside my fiancée at our wedding next year. Being at my own wedding, and walking into that day healthy and strong, is a dream I’m determined to make real.”

But he needs our help.

He joined Mix 106.3’s Kristen and Nige this morning to talk about his fundraising efforts.
