My Story

9 Sep 2026

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

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

John

My treatment starts on Monday.

I have been doing better than I expected. My last two rides have been ten miles and included some hills. I don’t know how this leukemia treatment will affect me. I got a grant to cover my $1,000+ a month copay on one of my drugs. I would like to be able to reach my goal.

I still want to do this challenge

1 Sep 2026

Signed up the first day of registration. I was feeling very weak at the time but I thought I could build my strength over the summer. I was wrong, my leukemia kept getting worse and I became weaker. My oncologist told me I needed to start treatment but first I had to have a lot of testing to make sure I could handle the treatment.

I had ct scans, pet scans, an MRI of my heart, a bone marrow biopsy. Now I’m waiting on the treatment center to tell me I’m ready to go.

This is a different kind of treatment than I had in 2021 so I don’t know what to expect. I set my goals low this year because I’m struggling. Today is September 1st and I just got back from my first ride. I managed to ride six miles. I’ll try to add mileage each day but I don’t know if I will be able. I’ll give it my best shot.
