Welcome to my Team In Training home page. The letter above was written by my neice, Caroline. She is selling water bottles with the Leukemia Society logo on them to raise money for LLS. The photograph is of Caroline and her dad, my brother Jason, when he

was in the middle of is treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Jason fought his battle valiantly for 4 years before losing his life. He had beaten cancer but the treatments had beaten him.


I have a mission-to help find cures and more effective treatments for blood cancers. To accomplish that mission, I’m participating in a 100 mile bike ride in Lake Tahoe June 2, 2013 as a member of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Team In Training. Like the other members of TNT, I will be raising funds to help find cures and better treatments for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma. With your support, I can help improve the quality of life for patients and their families as well.


Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help advance the research for cures.


Very sincerely,


Dana

"Jason held a place in our hearts that will always be filled by his loving, funfilled memory. He was such a hoot to be around, and John and I have so many memories that make us laugh even now-we can hear his laugh and see his big ear-to-ear grin. We will be with you on your ride,Dana, or as Jason would say,with an impish gleam in his eye,"Well maybe in spirit,right?!" Ride with vigor and love in your heart for your Baby Brother. We love you."
