By: McMilliam Michael's adventurous spirit shines through his words: "I've jumped out of planes before, so why not fly down a mountain?" His son, who flew in from Canada to join him, expressed immense pride in his father's bravery. "When your 76-year-old dad with cancer asks you to join him on the fastest zipline in the world, you don't say no," he said. The zipline challenge is part of a fundraising campaign for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity close to the McGrory family's heart. The funds raised will support those facing cancer, ensuring they don't go through it alone. For Michael, this adventure is more than just an adrenaline rush; it's a tribute to friends and relatives lost to cancer. "I've lived a good life," he said. "Now, I want to give back, and if that means throwing myself down a zipline, then let's do it." Michael's story has captured the hearts of many, inspiring others to face life's challenges with humor, courage, and perhaps a zipline or two. His journey highlights the importance of supporting cancer patients and raising awareness for the incredible work Macmillan does. You can support Michael's cause and Macmillan Cancer Support by donating through his crowdfunding project. Let's help ensure no one faces cancer alone.
