Tom is Racing to Save Lives
On Saturday February 28, 2009 My Best Friend Jon lost his battle to Cancer. I'm participating in a half Ironman Triathalon as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training.
Experiencing the pain and suffering patients and their families go through is what motivates me. Jon won't be able to see me race in June. Luckily he had family and friends around him to care for him. Some others don't and they need your help.
I need some help too. Most of you that know me have seen me slide into the size I have become. I want to fix that so I thought I'd give myself some motivation. Jon is that motivation. I train for him because he can't anymore.
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 Jon and 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.
It you would prefer you can mail a check to my home the address is: Tom Cushing, 35 Pickwick Drive North, Syosset, NY 11791. Please make the check payable to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support! If you go to my my Facebook page you'll see some pictures of my training progress. Thanks again.
