Here's my story ...
I am proud to be running the Falmouth Road Race for the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of New England with my dear friend Pete DeMarco as our team captain, and alongside my friend and fellow teammate, Meghan Walsh!
I am running for the people in my life who have been affected by asthma, including my friends' little girl who I have the privilege of caring for on a regular basis.
One afternoon, as she ate her snack, she sat with her stuffed animals and acted as the doctor who walked them each through how to use an inhaler, count out the necessary seconds before exhaling, and what to do if they felt scared or confused. It was clear she had been given excellent care and medical treatment when being treated during a flareup, and that's something that all people affected by asthma and allergies deserve.
It's an honor to support the work the Asthma and Allergy Foundation is doing to improve the lives of people affected by these conditions by providing them with resources and education, and conducting research. Please consider making a donation to support their work, and thank you for checking out my page!
Description
How many of your family members and friends are affected by food allergies, environmental allergies, or have asthma? Very likely, more and more. The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, New England Chapter helps people with such conditions live healthier, safer and more active lives through patient education, public awareness and continuing research. It's been our mission since 1979 -- and it's becoming more important than ever.
Please support our very FIRST Falmouth Road Race team to help our organization continue such important work!
