Racing to Save Lives



Welcome to my Team In Training home page.



On July 9, 2002 Parker was almost 3 years old when diagnosed with Philadelphia Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. (Now 9 years old, August 5, 2008). Only 4% of ALL's are Philadelphia positive. This Philadelphia chromosome makes it a much more aggressive type of leukemia and requires a more intense chemotherapy regimen. A drug called Gleevec was given in the hopes that it would be a cure. However, doctors across the nation are now seeing patients relapse on this drug. The only cure now is a bone marrow transplant.



I'm training to participate in an endurance event as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I am completing this event in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!





Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.



I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
