But in speaking with Gallagher after the Canadiens practised on Wednesday, he was unequivocal about inheriting his relentless drive from his mother, Della, who is currently depending on her own competitiveness, courage, defiance and strength in a fight he, Ian and the rest of their family wished she’d have never been faced with. 

 

Now, nearly 31 months after being given anywhere between six and 18 months to live, Della Gallagher is punching back as hard as she ever has and inspiring Brendan in unprecedented ways.

 

As Brendan’s sister, Bree, recently divulged, Della has been dealing with stage-4 cancer of the brain known as Glioblastoma.

 

As part of an initiative to help expand research and treatment available to Canadians, she detailed the events that led to her mother’s diagnosis.

Yeah it was. I've known for weeks it was his last lap. But still doesn't prepare you for the reality.

If I was younger, I'd go study to be a lab researcher, or something that can fight cancer more directly.

Then I got the news from my sister that my 82 year old Uncle has cancer. God damn.
