A young dad with terminal cancer has created a bucket list to make special memories with his family after he stopped his chemotherapy treatment.
Dove White, 42, made the brave decision to end his treatment in November after a difficult six-year battle with Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma - a rare form of the disease that develops in the salivary glands and other regions of the head and neck.
The dad, from Whiteinch in Glasgow, now wants to focus on making memories with his wife, Sarah, 40, their daughter, 17, and his stepson, 16, as he has no idea how long he has left to live.
One of his final wishes is to take Sarah to Iceland to see the Northern Lights for their honeymoon as the couple were unable to travel after tying the knot in 2017.
He told the Record: "It just wasn't possible to travel due to my health, it's the simple things that I've missed the chance to do. I don't want to leave it too late.
"Ending treatment was one of the most difficult choices I've ever had to make in my life. The illness, the pain and the mental state of mind combined with seizures were only a few of the contributing factors. I knew that no matter what I chose, I'd regret that I didn't do the other.
"Experiences are more memorable. All the money raised will be spent on the bucket list to give my family happy memories of me after I'm gone. Hopefully one day they'll be able to look back and smile."
