My Story…
We are happy to share that with Sean leading our way, we will be running & rolling this August in the 7 mile Falmouth Road Race supporting the Spina Bifida Association of Greater New England (SBAGNE).
Sean was born with spina bifida which is a spinal column neural tube birth defect impacting the spinal cord and central nervous system and causing orthopedic abnormalities and numerous internal organs issues from the brain to the lungs down to the kidneys, bowels and bladder. Complex care is required including a cadre of specialists to cover all of the medical, physical and emotional issues caused by spina bifida.
We have been part of the SBAGNE community since Sean was in preschool and have met so many wonderful families and friends along the way. SBAGNE provides education, programs, resources and support to families and individuals across New England whose lives have been touched by spina bifida.
We are proud to be part of this group and want to do all we can to support all of the incredible work SBAGNE does.
With Sean's determination to finish all 7 miles combined with his positive mindset and "never quit" attitude, we know we will finish the race with big smiles and lots of high-fives!!
We would be so honored if you would consider supporting our fundraising goals.
With love and thanks,
Sean, Kim & Ryan
