My Story…
This one is for my mom. She’s been there for our family and so many others in ways that are truly heartfelt. She is an angel among us. No one knows why this happened but we pray for His miraculous power and life changing medicine to heal her.
I’m not big on social media let alone soliciting donations, however I never thought cancer would impact my family like it has. I just want it to go away…we all do. Cancer free and remission are words that we all want to hear and I believe in them.
Running is an avenue to safely channel the frustration and pain. Just when I think I can’t go any further, I think of her, I pray for her and sometimes I cry.
Stay Strong! Keep the faith and trust in God. Don’t feel obligated to donate, the most powerful tool we have is prayer. Please send one up for her.
You are my determination Momma!
Love you, Jay
Description
Why I Am Participating in the Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend to Support the American Cancer Society
For the first time in history, the American Cancer Society's mission is at risk - including their ability to fund cancer research. The American Cancer Society needs to be here to help patients face cancer with comprehensive support, but they need our help to be able to do so. Every dollar will truly make a difference right now.
Taking part in this event gives me the chance to make a difference and honor those touched by cancer by raising funds for groundbreaking research and services for people dealing with cancer. I'm also participating to inspire hope for those facing the disease and raising money for the American Cancer Society's event to help save lives from cancer. I hope you'll consider signing up too.
Funds raised support cancer patient programs and groundbreaking research that can help save lives. This event also celebrates over 15.5 million cancer survivors nationwide. 15.5 MILLION. That's huge. That's why I'd love your support. Will you join me? And if you can't would you be so kind as to make a donation?
