Daughter takes terminally ill father, 72, on bucket list adventures

A terminally-ill man was given a series of unique adventures including a private tour of a Navy helicopter squadron, all provided by strangers, after his loving daughter appealed for help to make the most of his last few days.

When Patrick Mitchell was given a terminal diagnosis of stage-four pancreatic cancer in December last year, at the age of 72, his daughter Vanessa Mitchell-Delmotte decided to post to a group on Facebook asking about ideas for things to do in the area for his bucket list.
