My Story…

In December 2019, someone who I hold very close to my heart has been diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and has been given less than a year to live. I have decided to participate in a 5K run this coming May in hopes of fundraising for the cause. My charity of choice is the Queensway Carleton Hospital, where my loved one goes on a regular basis whether it be for chemotherapy or for other appointments. My team name is "GetRDone" for those of you who want to join! For those of you that know, I figured the name fits <3
