100% of every participant-raised dollar goes to EMF’s mission.
Cancer has unfortunately largely affected my life through way of family and friends. I dedicate my fundraising efforts to all that have been impacted by cancer to support the continued advancements in treatment and to allow for longer and better outcomes.My Updates
Cancer has been an uninvited guest in my life too many times.
Friday 9th May OK...Time to get real for a minute...Cancer has been an uninvited guest in my life too many times.
It started with my Aunt Barbara, who was diagnosed with Breast Cancer when I was in middle school. She fought, we celebrated her remission, but only for cancer to return and take her too soon. I was just a senior in high school. Almost right after that, my Uncle Mike passed away from Lung Cancer. He was such a kind warm soul with a wild spirit! I remember being young and hoping that Uncle Mike would fly or drive to surprise us at family events. Always the life of the party.
Fast forward to adulthood, my nephew’s wife Fernanda was diagnosed during the height of COVID, at 29 years old. While preparing for surgery in Brazil, she received a miracle—a pregnancy diagnosis with odds of 1 in 150,000. She started chemo, had a healthy baby boy, and today she is cancer-free and thriving. Then came my friend Lisa—strong, fierce, and full of life—diagnosed with breast cancer during COVID. She told me as we stood in my kitchen on Halloween. She faced treatment mostly alone due to restrictions but never lost her spirit. She beat cancer and continues to inspire me every day.
Most recently, my Uncle Bob was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer last year. He fought with everything he had, but passed away this past January. His loss is still fresh, and his memory is with me every step I take. I miss you every single day.
This May, I’m participating in the Expect Miracles Foundation - Financial Services Against Cancer Distance Challenge along with the EdgarAgents (EA) tEAm to raise money for Cancer Research.
🙏 If cancer has touched your life, I ask you to consider supporting our team. Every dollar counts, every step matters, and every story deserves a better ending.
Thank you for reading, supporting, and believing in a world with more survivors and fewer goodbyes.
Thank you to my Donors
