Leuk the Duck
It was “by chance” that I was watching the 2014 Frys.com Open when I first heard about Jarrod Lyle and his battle with leukemia. You could not hear his story and not be moved to want to help in some small way, see for yourself, Lyle’s story.
In July 2017, Lyle began treatment for another recurrence of the leukemia, but a year later decided to end treatment and begin palliative care. He died on 8 August 2018, less than two weeks before his 37th birthday
Having been diagnosed with cancer three times throughout his life, Jarrod understood the hardship that young people and their families face when battling this disease. Through his knowledge, it was Jarrod’s goal to help Challenge make a family’s journey with cancer a little easier by providing practical assistance and support.
Funds raised through various Jarrod’s Gift events will help assist with the “little things”, which Jarrod knew could so often help to make the biggest difference in a family’s journey.
You can show your support for Jarrod’s Gift and help ensure Jarrod’s legacy continues in the following ways:
