I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I had B-cell leukemia as a kid. Diagnosed at ~22mo, experimental treatment, 18mo later I was in remission. Too many other kids on my unit died.


35 years later, I'm dealing with congestive heart failure due to 2 of the chemo drugs (which we now know cause cardiomyopathy) and having to take blood pressure meds every day. To say that childhood cancer survivors get to just sit back and enjoy life like everyone else is simply untrue, you're always looking over your shoulder for side effects from treatment and recurrence of cancer.


This is why finding new, lesser-damaging treatments is crucial for kids that grow up to be people like me, who likely will die young because we dodged a bullet while sick as a kid. I'm volunteering and raising money with St. Baldrick's to help kids with cancer! Every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer worldwide, and 1 in 5 of those in the U.S. will not survive.


I refuse to accept this reality, so I’ve decided to fundraise for lifesaving research to find cures and better treatments for kids.


Now I need your support! Your donation can fund research to help kids survive and thrive.
