Racing to Save Lives Welcome to my Team In Training home page! That picture was taken 8 years ago while I was getting chemo for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Eric was 7 months old when I got that diagnosis, and I certainly couldn't have dreamed we'd be able to have Jack when it was all over! I'm training to walk a half-marathon on Labor Day weekend in Virginia Beach as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training, in the hope that no one I love will ever have to go through the nightmare of cancer. Together, I really think we will find a cure, maybe even before Eric & Jack become parents! All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop Hodgkin's lymphoma, leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma from taking more lives. I am completing this event because I am a survivor of a blood cancer, 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. If you prefer to pay by check, you can make it out to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, and mail it to me at home: 652 Eric Ct, Herndon, VA 20170. I hope you will visit my web site often. It's not too late to donate! They don't close the books until one month after my race, which was yesterday (9/6/09)... Yes, I did it!!! 13.1 miles in 3 hours 21 minutes, which was really close to my goal. There were a few rough miles (especially 9 to 11!), but I made it! Thanks so much to everyone who supported me, financially AND emotionally. I heard so many inspiring stories this weekend ~ this will NOT be my last walk. We NEED to find a cure for these cancers! One night as I was doing my miles, I heard Melissa Etheridge's "I Run for Life" on my ipod. If you just change "run" to "walk" she just says it perfectly: It's been years since they told her about it The darkness her body possessed And the scars are still there in the mirror Everyday that she gets herself dressed Though the pain is miles and miles behind her And the fear is now a docile beast If you ask her why she is still WALKing She'll tell you it makes her complete I WALK for hope I WALK to feel I WALK for the truth For all that is real I WALK for your mother, your sister, your wife I WALK for you and me, my friend I WALK for life Thanks for your support! Catherine |
