My Story…
In 2016 my father suffered 3 strokes. My family and I recognize how fortunate we are that he did not have and side effects from his TIAs. I joined Tedy's Team to support awareness of the signs of stroke and to help others who are not as fortunate with the effects of their strokes. Since joining Tedy's Team the number of family and friends that have been affected by stroke has increased. My hope is that by sharing the warning signs and promoting awareness people are able to respond quicker and get the assistance that they need. My WHY will always be by dad but I honor many others as I run my races.
