Cancer Sucks! This dreaded disease has sadly touched all of us in some way or form. I truly hope we find a cure for cancer soon, or at the least, find a way to combat it with a healthier tide of antidotes.
I'm riding for the Erica Leafquist Fund. Erica was a vibrant, audacious, very artistic child who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) when she was 4 years old. She battled a tough 10-year fight but the disease had severely weakened her immune system and eventually took her life in 2013, but not her spirit. Erica left a salient impression with all who met her, one that is celebrated and shared often. Her fund supports the financial means and research to discover the drugs and therapies to improve ALL’s cure rate.
On August 4th & 5th, I will be pedaling 163 miles on my recently purchased 2-wheel ride, from Wellesley, MA to Provincetown, MA.
I will encourage you to donate any amount that you deem worthy for my 163-mile bike ride. Your donation is tax-deductible too!
If you want to know more about Erica, as well as Dr. Silverman, Erica’s principal doctor at Dana Farber and is the medical director of the Erica Leafquist Fund, then please visit www.ericaleafquist.org.
