Danny gave his Oral Cancer survivor’s presentation at the University of British Columbia Dentistry Research Day 2016  in the Great Hall on January 26, 2016.  

Approximately 600 dental health professionals attended the event to hear several presentations on Oral Cancer.  

Danny was also the guest keynote speaker at the Taste For Life Gala – An Evening to Conquer Oral Cancer at the Terminal City Club, Vancouver, on April 23, 2015, and again in April 2016.  

He has also given his presentation to dental study groups on the Lower Mainland.  

Danny also remains in contact with many cancer patients and staff he met while volunteering at the BC Cancer Agency (September 2011 – January 1, 2016).

As a patient advisor, Danny also served on the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer – Person-Centred-Perspective, Measurement Steering Committee.

Danny is available to give his inspirational cancer story – to groups or individuals anywhere!

Although my cancer was stage 3 throat (tongue) cancer – I support and attend as many cancer fundraisers as possible. 

I volunteered at the cancer center when Lui Passaglia was undergoing his treatments. 

He also happens to be one of my favorite BC Lions football players!

2019 Push For Your Tush 5/10 km Run/Walk – Vancouver, BC

This was Danny’s fifth year walking in this colorectal cancer fundraiser. 

Although Danny had throat cancer – he supports all cancer fundraisers because cancer is cancer and we’re going to find a cure for this terrible disease by pledging a few dollars towards research! 

The research will probably save you or someone you know – just as it saved my life!

This year’s walk was on Sunday, June 9, 2019, at Jericho Beach Park.

Here are a few video clips from the walk: Push for your Tush video clips

Santa Danny is taking reservations for company parties in November/December – on a first-come, first-served basis. 

All money raised goes to the UBC Oral Cancer Prevention Fund.   

Drop me a line, and I’ll ensure Santa Danny gets your message!

Living with cancer is not a death sentence, but giving up on living is!

I hope my stories are a gift to your head and heart.

Today’s tune from Danny’s library (purchased):

Hey, tomorrow, where are you goin’?
Do you have some room for me?
‘Cause night is fallin’ and the dawn is callin’
I’ll have a new day if she’ll have me

Hey, tomorrow, I can’t show you nothin’
You’ve seen it all pass by your door
So many times I said I been changin’
Then, slipped into patterns of what happened before

‘Cause I’ve been wasted, and I’ve over-tasted
All the things that life gave to me
And I’ve been trusted, abused, and busted
And I’ve been taken by those close to me

Hey, tomorrow, you’ve gotta believe that
I’m through wastin’ what’s left of me
‘Cause night is fallin’ and the dawn is callin’
I’ll have a new day if she’ll have me

‘Cause I’ve been wasted, and I’ve over-tasted
All the things that life gave to me
And I’ve been trusted, abused, and busted
And I’ve been taken by those close to me

Hey, tomorrow, where are you goin’?
Do you have some room for me?
‘Cause night is fallin’ and the dawn is callin’
I’ll have a new day if she’ll have me.

I’ll have a new day if she’ll have me.
