I don't know about you, but I am sick of saying goodbye to friends and family members who pass away much too young from cancer. I am sick of seeing them suffer from treatments that are sometimes worse than the disease. I am sick of seeing them and their families bankrupt from expensive treatments. I am taking action by walking in the 2024 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk to raise funds to help end cancer.
I wish I had done this walk sooner - maybe whatever I raised would have saved my friends Lorna, who passed away in January of this year, or Marjorie, who passed away last August. Or maybe it would have helped my family member Deryle, who passed away in April of this year. But I am doing something now.
When you make a donation to my Walk, you’re directly supporting Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s unique balance between cutting-edge research and compassionate patient care. Your support allows Dana-Farber leaders to enhance programs and initiatives that serve pediatric and adult patients and their families.
Thank you for supporting my Jimmy Fund Walk fundraising efforts. Together, we can defy cancer!
