Help Sindy raise money

For participating in Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend 2022

My Story…

Hello family and friends. 

I am the team captain of MEMC Crew. We're raising money for pancreatic cancer research at The Ottawa Hospital - while training for Ottawa Race Weekend on May 28 and 29, 2022. I will be running in the half marathon. 

As I'm sure you all know, I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (adenocarcinoma) on Jan 2, 2013. I was very fortunate to remain disease free for 8 1/2 years!

My luck ran out, and in September 2021 I had a metastasis (from my original pancreatic cancer) to my lung, surgery to remove it, and 3 rounds of Folfirinox chemotherapy in December/January (had to stop due to severe adverse side effects) as a preventive measure to stop any more metastases. 

Now, more than ever, I love life and live each day with gratitude. We are fundraising to find better treatments for pancreatic cancer, to give more people hope of surviving this horrible cancer. 

If you'd like to join our team or donate, please find the links below. If you would like to contact me, please email sindyhoop@gmail.com.  

Thank you. 

Make every moment count!
