My Story…
Hi Friends!
Thank you SO much for taking the time to stop by my page!
This amazing journey continues...
This August I will be joining Tedys Team in running the 50th Falmouth Road Race. How could I say no to such an iconic race with a charity that means the world to me.
Quick background for those of you who don't know my story. In 2013, my best friend (my dad) suffered a massive stroke which resulted in his passing. This flipped not only mine and my family's but so many others worlds upside down. Being so unfamiliar and uneducated to what a stroke was, or what the warning signs were I knew that it was now my duty to help educate others and raise awareness to aid in the fight to end this devastating health condition. Shortly there after I was blessed with finding Tedy's Team, founded by Patriots player Tedy Bruschi after he himself suffered a stroke. Over these past 8 years with this inspiring group of people which now I consider family, I have raised over $60,000 for this amazing cause.
Please consider making a donation as I will be running for not only my dad, but so many other stroke heroes on this day in the hopes that we can make an impact.
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE WARNING SIGNS, they could save a life<3

E - Eyesight changes
