Help Kathy raise money

For participating in 2021 Hamilton Marathon Road2Hope

My Story…

Our beautiful daughter, Brooke, was diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) in December 2020, after many specialist appointments, blood tests, and imaging. TSC is lifelong and affects many vital organs including the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, eyes, and skin. Although we are lucky in that Brooke has yet to experience any seizures (that we are aware of), she has a long road ahead of her with all of the anticipated health complications, and has already spent a lot of time at SickKids with the different specialties involved in TSC.


This year, on November 6, we are joining Cooper's Crew in a virtual 5K to raise awareness about TSC and funds for the Cooper Robertson Foundation. Brooke has also joined the Kids Crew and will do her best to walk 1K! All funds go directly to the Tuberous Sclerosis clinic at SickKids Hospital, where both Cooper and Brooke are patients. You can learn more about Cooper's story here, and check out some videos of last year's #RunWithCoops here and here

Thank you so much for your donation! And, if you would like to join Cooper's Crew for the virtual or in-person event, click here to register!


Love, 

Kathy, Jed and most of all Brooke!
