About us
Hi, my name is Eli Cowell and I'm running in the Falmouth Road Race for the KeepSmilin4Abbie Foundation. This organization's goal is to promote awareness of anaphylaxis, and to find ways to prevent allergic reactions. My younger sister, Olive, was diagnosed with an allergy to wasps when she was little, after going into anaphylactic shock. Olive has dealt with this allergy her whole life. Growing up beside her has made me appreciate the efforts that both she and my family put into keeping her safe. Being forced to carry an Epi-pen with you is a hard ask, knowing that your life depends on it. Allergies are a hidden disease, and people may look down on them at times. KeepSmilin4Abbie Foundation has a goal of spreading awareness of anaphylaxis, so people with allergies, like my sister, know they have others at their back. Olive still fights her allergy to this day, and she has become more responsible to holding her Epipen with her at all times. I'm running this race for her and all other people affected by anaphylaxis. Thank you to the KeepSmilin4Abbie Foundation and you for your support
