Hi friends!
Bethany and I are shaving our heads to raise money to fight childhood cancer! My brother Craig was a leukemia patient when he was a child, and was saved by what was then considered experimental cancer treatment. With your help we’d like to honor Craig, and support kids like Benny (https://www.stbaldricks.org/ambassadors#benny) who is fighting a brain tumor. Benny's quite the fundraiser in his own right!
While Bethany and I are old hands at supporting cancer fighting charities, this time our perspective is different. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in April and began treatment just a few weeks ago. Thanks to the many advances in cancer treatment I'm planning on making a full recovery. Bethany and I are fortunate to have the terrific support of our families and the company I work for (thank you BOLDT!). We know that not everyone fights cancer with these advantages, and we are grateful.
Facing this kind of thing as an adult is one thing, but a child should NEVER have to go through cancer treatment like Craig and Benny have, and that’s what we’re out to change. Help us help Benny and other kids like him by contributing generously! And stay tuned for pictures of the Big Shave!
