My Story…

We all have personal connections with cancer, and I am no different. In January 2019, my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer. She underwent various forms of treatment, multiple surgeries and countless scans to ensure that the cancer remained controlled. Unfortunately, she passed away on April 15th, 2020. It has been a very difficult and humbling experience watching the strongest person you know battle this disease. She was the epitome of strength and positivity through it all, even on the not-so-good days. My brother and I are both running in the virtual Ottawa race weekend In honour of mom and all those who are living with and fighting cancer.
