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

Why? First, I am a recent survival of rectal cancer. I am one month since the removal of my ileostomy bag, that I had for four months after they removed a very large tumor. I feel very blessed and lucky to have survived. But I could have not done it by myself, without the support of my friends, family, and doctors that truly cared. So, in gaining my muscle and mobility back, I had already chosen bike riding. It was my good fortune that the timing of this challenge was perfect and exactly what I needed to continue my journey and give back to the children and their families.

More importantly, I am doing this for the children. 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.
