I'm Riding For

In honor of Harper

On June 1, 2017, at 10-weeks old, Harper was diagnosed with infantile Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with the MLL gene rearrangement. With a 10% prognosis for survival, she was immediately admitted to our local Children's Hospital, began IV chemo treatment, and enrolled in a brand new LLS funded clinical trial that ultimately saved her life. After eight months in the hospital enduring intense treatment, lumbar punctures, bone marrow aspirations, and more; then another 18 months of at-home oral medication, Harper rang her bell on July 18, 2019, signifying the end of treatment and remission status! Harper has never wavered since diagnosis, proving to be a strong and fierce little girl and now almost 5 years later remains in remission..

My Story

5 Feb 2022

This September I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer.

I will be riding to raise funds to support Children’s Cancer Research Fund. I am riding in honor of Harper who. was diagnosed with infantile Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with the MLL gene rearrangement. With a 10% prog Together we can help find cures for all childhood cancers.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Ira
