Thank you for visiting my personal page and I hope you can help me to reach my fundraising goal!

As you know, I was a very healthy person - exercising, eating the healthy foods, meditating. When I was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor in April I was completely in shock, and had surgery in May. Still quite a journey ahead and I'm hopeful.

I feel blessed to be able to walk and able to participate in Head for the Cure St. Louis on June 26th, 2022 (Sunday), to bring awareness for brain cancer research. The money will go to the cancer center and the university who is now taking care of me.

Please consider making a donation  to help me reach my goal and to help Head for the Cure defeat brain cancer, step by step!

Each year, over 84,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with a primary or metastatic brain tumor. More than 120 types of brain tumors exist, making effective treatment complicated. 

Many treatment options to heal or extend life have only recently improved in the past few years. Cutting edge research is needed as we continue to make strides in this fight.

Head for the Cure works to inspire hope for the community of brain cancer patients, their families, friends, caregivers and other supporters, while celebrating their courage, spirit and energy. Every Head for the Cure event marks a day of celebration where those diagnosed with brain cancer are honored and celebrated by their friends and families, those who have lost their battles are remembered, and we are all inspired to carry on the fight. 

Funds raised by Head for the Cure support the Brain Tumor Trials Collaborative, a network of medical centers with the expertise and the desire to participate in state-of-the-art clinical trials investigating new treatments for malignant brain tumors.
