Each year I am reminded of the toll that cancer takes, and the challenges that patients and their families confront as they grapple with the disease, but also the healthcare labyrinth they must navigate. Each year I join friends in the local cycling community to honor those who are continuing the struggle, and those who have passed.
I choose ERRACE because they provide support to patients and families that supplements the clinical care, filling gaps that make a critical difference with the emotional and logistical hurdles.
I hope my friends will consider donating on my behalf, and appreciate every contribution.
