Hello, In November 2009 I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. I began chemo on December 23, 2009 and completed the treatment On May 6, 2010. I am cured. A rearched treatment is what let me sail through a very aggressive form of cancer. Support for the science and research for new treatments and cures for is what will let countless others live through it too.


Since 1993, participants in The Leukemia Cup Regatta events throughout the country have raised over $3.8 million in funding for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to invest in research to find cures for blood cancers—leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma—and to help improve the lives of patients and families. This year the Leukemia Cup Regatta is on October 6th.


I am not participating in the race, I am not strong enough yet, so you would not be sponsoring me personally to participate in this event. I am doing a small part in fundraising to support the continued research and development of new cures for Leukemia & Lymphoma. If you feel it and want to support click on the link below.
