Team Eye and Ear Falmouth 2024
FUN FACT - I am almost completely deaf in my right ear.
Mass Eye and Ear saved my life at 6 years old, but in saving my ear/brain/life, I lost my hearing.
Years of appointments, hearing tests, MRI's and hearing aids followed. (Until one of my elementary school teachers mistook the ring of my hearing aid for a Tamagotchi and I chucked my hearing aid in the trash real fast and never looked back).
In the large scheme of things, I am lucky. There are a few things I'm passionate about and one of them is the care for children with Medical Needs. Myself, with Mass Eye and Ear when I was young. And Tate now as he navigates Chronic Kidney Disease and his own health issues.
I am running for those moms, dads and children. I am running so we can continue to have excellent care for out little loves.
