My Story…
This year I will be joining Tedy Bruschi's Stroke Team in the Falmouth Road Race. This organization is very near and dear to my heart as I continue to raise my very own stroke hero. Those of you who may not know, my oldest son suffered a stroke in utero. This event left him with right sided hemi-paresis. He has very limited use of his right side, especially his arm. Despite all of this, he continues to amaze me each and every day. He plays baseball, soccer, loves Rocket League and Minecraft, he is a kind friend and a very hard worker! This year I will run for him! (and those of you that really know me, know that even 7 miles will mean a lot of training for me).
Any donation is appreciated for this wonderful cause organized by an amazing role model himself, Tedy Bruschi.
Description
The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback!
