Support for Sarah & Whitey

It is with incredibly sad hearts that we announce that on Friday, February 18, 2022, Ryan and Sarah White received the life-altering news that their first born, Gordie Joseph Ryan White, has been diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour, DIPG.

DIPG is an aggressive form of brain cancer, most commonly found in children ages 7-10. It has a 0% survival rate.

Gordie is not only the light of his parents’, sister Molly’s, and family’s lives, but he leaves a significant impact on everyone he meets. He is a happy, loving, comedic, witty and charming little boy.

He has undoubtedly left an indelible mark on his world in the three and a half short years he’s been with us, and will continue to for his remaining months and forever after. Sarah, Ryan and their families are dedicated to making every day count and will ensure that Gordie continues to live an extremely happy and full life while he can.

In order to help Gordie gain a little more time with all of us, he is getting ready to start 6 weeks of radiation treatment. We have set up this Go Fund Me to support Sarah and Ryan, and to hopefully relieve a tiny amount of the stress that they are under.

Their families thank you for all of your love and support. We ask that we respect their privacy at this time.
