My Story

13 Sep 2023

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.

There is a long way to go….. two of the 6 former teammates have dealt with cancer themselves and played a big role in my initial involvement. Thank you again for your support and hope we see each other again soon!♥️”

I am making “baby steps” with Blair…. A few texts and connection….. she had a part in a Second City production a little while back and really enjoyed it…. Also, taking a class in stand up comedy….. she should have enough material just with me to last awhile!”
