Maria forgot one for Sue's husband, so I told her to give him my shirt.

Not different at all ;)

Just spoke to Sue and the results of her latest MRI came in... no recurrence of the brain cancer. It's been 3 years since her last surgery to remove the tumor and she is off the scale of survival. Most people only survive 7-15 months and only a very very few last 3 years. They have included her in a study as to why some last longer than others.

The donations you made are directly funding this study.

It's another year and i'm doing it for the 3rd time.

In the past year, my mom was diagnosed with a gastrointestinal tumor and lung cancer. My cousin had tumors on both lungs and breast cancer. And my uncle lost his battle with prostate cancer.

The fight is far from over.

I hope I can count on you to help.

100% of your donation goes to research and is 100% tax deductible. Get it in for your 2014 return.

This weekend one of the team members had to drop out. But Jamie, Toby's fiance, has offered to take that slot and is riding for her father who's battling his 3rd cancer.

Sue is still kicking 4 years after being diagnosed with brain cancer and tomorrow is having reconstruction surgery after her double mastectomy a year ago.

Another new member of the team is a 7 year survivor and we are thrilled that she is here and healthy enough to ride.

Even $5 donations help.
