Number of years on treatment: 3 1/2 years

My toughest challenge with childhood cancer: Playing while being hooked up to buddy (the IV). It was hard riding the toy tractor while pulling buddy.

Describe some great things that have come about through your journey of childhood cancer: Making lots of new friends.

Describe your Best Day: In the playroom I had my 4th birthday party. It was the first day I was allowed out of my room after isolation for my stem cell transplant. I liked opening the presents and eating the cake. I invited all of the doctors and nurses from the oncology ward.

Tell us about your Worst Day: My worst days were days were when I had to have bone marrow biopsies because the drugs they gave me made me very dizzy.

What Coast to Coast Against Cancer means to me: I want to tell people about childhood cancer and help raise money.

Tell us what your message is to our riders, volunteers, sponsors and all Canadians: I love you and thank-you.

Any other personal thoughts: From Philip’s Mom: These past 4 years have made a huge change in our lives. We have become much more focused on the important things in our lives especially quality family time. It has been interesting hearing Philip’s answers to the questions.
