Hello, i be Cheechy and I'm raising funds for my dad, Todd, who has been fighting cancer since early 2025. I love my dad so much and the thought of losing him hurts even more. I can't imagine the pain him and my step-mom, Tania, must be going through with this battle and I want to provide support in some way. So here we are, a whole fundraiser dedicated to him~This is the Official Hub for the Fundraiser, where you can learn more about my dad, navigate to related fundraiser platforms and get all the information about the Stream-A-Thon taking place on Twitch.Thank you so much for your interest and contributions to the fundraiser. Every little bit helps and your support means the world to me and my Dad. Let's make this a successful fundraiser, together!


~my fave pic of me and my dad~
1) What type of cancer do you have?
A) I’ve been diagnosed with (intrahepatic) cholangiocarcinoma of the liver which is cancer in the bile duct.2) When did you first notice something wasn't right?
A) Jan 2025, I was getting sick to my stomach for no reason whatsoever. I didn’t feel unwell I would just throw up out of nowhere.3) When were you diagnosed?
A) The doctors suspected this was the issue on Jan 12th 2025 but I didn’t get a confirmed diagnosis until March 31st 2025 after 5 biopsies4) Were there any findings that surprised you or the Doctors?
A) Not really, the most surprising thing was finding out I had cancer again after beating cancer once already.5) What types of treatments have you undergone so far?
A) Chemotherapy and immunotherapy, the placement of two bile drainage tubes running through my stomach and liver running into my bowels and a metallic stent placed into one of the bile ducts in my liver.6) What treatments are you receiving now?
A) I’m currently only receiving Immunotherapy and no longer receiving chemotherapy.7) What questions did you wish you had known to ask earlier?
A) I didn’t ask too many questions, I’ve had 3 very good teams looking after me and they normally answer any questions I have before I ask them.8) What does a "good day" vs a "bad day" look like for you?
A) On a good day you wouldn’t even know there’s anything wrong with me, although I still know and can still feel the tubes. I'll have an appetite. I actually have energy and feel like doing stuff. On a bad day I just lie on the couch not feeling well, haven’t had too many of those days since i stopped taking chemo though.9) What's something cancer hasn't taken from you?
A) One thing it hasn’t taken from me, and has given me more realization of, is the love and support of family and friends and how many friends I actually have.10) What do you hope we carry forward from this experience?
A) Never give up, never surrender. Always, always, always try to stay positive, it will you do you far better than negativity, and the answer may be right around the corner. Try to get through the bad days the best you can. The people who love you don’t want you to give up or lose you.
My dad’s favourite colour is green, but he also really likes red.
My dad was adopted and was an only child.
My dad started playing music at 6 years old as an organist at the Ontario Conservatory of Music.
My dad is the keyboardist in a 9 piece Ska band called Blank Expression.
Blank Expression was formed in 1982 and after a long hiatus began playing again in 2019.
Blank Expression won the Burlington Sound of Music Festival’s very 1st Battle of the Bands in 1983
They performed on the Main Stage of the Sound of Music Festival for a high-profile legacy performance 42 years after their Battle of the Bands victory~
His nickname in Blank Expression is Uncle Todd. My “cousin” chanted this at one of the shows and everyone joined in and it stuck~
He is also a talented drummer as well! Having performed and released an album with the Ottawa-based band, Coma Lodge.
My dad and I were both in a marching band, the Burlington Teen Tour Band, when we were each teenagers. He played the triple drums and I played the glockenspiel.
My dad has always wanted to play the accordion but his parents made him play the organ instead~
My dad was known in high school for his cool pants, same as I was!
My dad once went to the same party as members of Van Halen~
The band, Rush, once performed at my dad’s high school.
My dad used to play Ice Hockey with "Fast" Eddy McDonald, a renowned yo-yo champion and Guiness World Record holder of the “most loop the loop yo-yo tricks in one hour”
My dad used to play Softball for multiple teams when I was a kid, going to his games is a favourite memory of mine.
My dad has been married 3 times~ He married my step-mom in Jamaica in 2013!
My dad and I once ate so many cashews at one time that we got sick.
My dad instilled the phrase “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst” in me my whole life.
My dad always said “Practice makes better, not perfect, nobody’s perfect”
My dad taught me how to not care what others think of me, by embarrassing the shit out of me whenever he could. It worked.
My dad is good at puzzles and can solve a rubix cube in about 3 to 4 minutes.
People like to say that my dad looks like a pirate. It caused a pirate frenzy where everyone gave him pirate themed gifts and he had a bunch of pirate themed decor.
My dad plays on a curling team called the Silky Pirates, they’ve won multiple bonspiels for the region and league championship.
My dad loves to play golf.
My dad’s one eye opens wide when he drinks something, I believe this is called Marcus Gunn Jaw-Winking Syndrome (MGJWS)? It used to scare my friends when I was a kid.
My dad is a postal worker right now he is on long-term disability due to his illness, but he has also had many other careers/jobs before that such as a fork lift operator, school bus driver, cnc machine operator, longshoreman and tanker pump operator.
My dad loves hot weather and has travelled all over the Caribbean and Central America, to places like Jamaica, St. Lucia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Turks and Caicos and his favourite place of all, Barbados.
My dad’s favourite snacks are popcorn and chips.
My dad loves cats! His cat is named Chester, I call him Chesterfield~
My dad is very handy and converted half his garage into a home sauna and made all the cabinets in the kitchen. He's a Jack of all Trades.
My dad was born on the cusp of Virgo & Libra astrology signs.
My dad is a good cook, and his BBQ skills are amazing, best ribs you’ll ever have~
My dad used to call me pumpkin as a kid, until I told him not to because kids at school said I looked like a pumpkin in my bright orange rain poncho.
My dad accidentally put my head into a ceiling fan as a toddler, I had to get 3 stitches, he still feels bad about it.
As a Postie, my dad used to walk roughly 28.5 km (17.7 mi) a day delivering mail
My dad used to put me in front of the speakers and play Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon to calm me down as a baby, the heartbeat at the beginning always did the trick.
My dad likes musicals and has seen Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Kinky Boots, The Book of Mormon, Dirty Dancing, Mama Mia, Chicago, Wicked, The Lion King and more, in person. He also saw the Lord of the Rings musical but said it was terrible.
My dad is a social butterfly and can make friends wherever he goes~ I did not inherit this trait.
My dad likes everyone until they give him a reason not to like them but also believes in second chances, but not third.
My dad has fought cancer once before and won, it was squamous cell carcinoma in the back of his tongue. He’s a fighter and will fight this cancer too!
My dad loves his family and friends~ (he wanted me to make sure I added this one)
