Welcome to my Team in Training homepage.
I am training to complete The Nation's Triathlon in Washington, DC, on September 13, 2009 as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training (TNT). All of us with TNT are raising funds to help stop blood cancers == leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma.
This will be my first complete, Olympic-distance triathlon, and I'm doing it in honor of my father and uncle, who both have Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), a low-grade form of the disease.
If you are wondering where the money goes...
* $50 will register 1 person to be a bone marrow donor.
* $75 will provide HLA (bone marrow) typing for a family member of a patient with leukemia.
* $100 will pay for the cost of 4 patients' chemotherapy co-payments.
* $300 will train 25 peer counselors who can provide support to newly diagnosed patients.
* $500 will provide patient aid to a person with Leukemia or a related cancer for a year.
* $1000 allows patients to meet with health care specialists to design and discuss their disease, treatment plan and prepare them with the info they will need during the treatment process.
* $2000 provides patients with a one month supply of Gleevac. [Gleevac is a pill used to treat patients with Chronic Myelogeous Leukemia. A pill, not chemotherapy! Just a pill. It was developed through research funded by the Society. THAT'S where the money goes.]
Please make a donation, no matter how large or small, to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance the mission of LLS. Remember that your donation is 100% tax deductible, and please check with your employer to see if they will match your gift. Your support will help us to cross the ultimate finish line == coming closer to finding a cure.
Thank you for your support!
