Help us raise money

In December our dad was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and in January started chemotherapy. He is currently being treated at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center, specifically at the Mario Lemieux Center for Blood Cancers. In support of our dad, we are running the Pittsburgh Marathon Relay. Our team (Team Chris’s Remission Mission) consists of 5 people who are major supporters and important people to our dad (Christopher Tamasy, Stephanie Tamasy, Jodie Shearer, Alyssa Brown, and Kirk Brown). We are running under the broader umbrella of Team Lemieux which supports the Mario Lemieux Foundation. The Mario Lemieux Foundation supports cancer research (including the Mario Lemieux Center for Blood Cancers), patient care, and Austin’s Playrooms. Please consider donating to support our dad, for a great cause, and to support our team as we run the relay for Team Chris’s Remission Mission!

A message from Chris Tamasy: “Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. I cannot express how grateful I am for your support. Thank you to my wife, my kids, my family and friends, and all the medical staff that has taken great care of me during this struggle in my life. I am fighting hard and I am not letting cancer beat me. Your donation is much appreciated and makes you a member of ‘Team Chris’s Remission’. I could not do this without all of you!”
