In 2021 my daughter Sophia was diagnosed with a Medulloblastoma, a type of brain cancer that originates on the cerebellum. Following a successful surgery to remove the tumor, she faced another challenge: Posterior Fossa Syndrome. Just to give you an idea of what Posterior Fossa Syndrome is like my daughter once told me the Chemo part was easy. I know personally the long term effects of battling cancer, the complications from surgery, and the side effects of treatment. I know the change in the challenge of quality of life , the friends they lose, and how the drastic social shift can be profound. I know my running won't undo what is done, it won't cure cancer itself but the money I raise may be able to contribute to research that could one day lead to a cure. I run with hope these brave children will see someone that was not a runner that is willing to punish himself because he loves them so much that he can hope to make their life better , if not forever , maybe then just for a moment. WE can hope to inspire , give motivation to know anything is possible. It's a symbol of our ongoing fight , and our battle never ends.
