Erica's Hike for Leukemia and Lymphoma

May 13, 2019
 

WELCOME TO MY TEAM IN TRAINING (TNT) HOME PAGE!

To my friends, family, and supporters: 

 

It takes more than one person to make up a team, that’s why I’m asking you to donate to my fundraising page for TNT.  By participating as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) TNT Hike Your Way, I am raising funds to help find cures and ensure access to treatments for blood cancer patients.

 

This year is the 15 year anniversary of my remission and end of treatment. I'm hiking for myself, to celebrate that.  When I'm hiking, I can get away from my thoughts of anxiety,  my issues with secondary effects, and worries about recurrence and secondary cancers. 

 

I'm also hiking for my friends and family who have supported me before, during, and after treatment. These people have supported me through thick and thin. They keep me going on those tougher days, and are there to laugh with me and share in my joy on the best days. I'm hiking for my friends and family who hike with me, some who are also fellow survivors, who remind me how important it is keep going. Because no matter how hard it is to get up the hill, it's always only "10 more minutes"!

 

I'm hiking for those currently in treatment, because new discoveries are made everyday. They deserve access to the best care, the best treatment, and all the support and resources we can get them, and more!   I'm also hiking for those who did not survive treatment. Their legacy will live on.  They're no longer here to fight for the cause, so we must continue the fight for them.

 

Your donation will help fund treatments that save lives every day; like immunotherapies that use a person’s own immune system to kill cancer. You may not know it, but every single donation helps save a life with breakthrough therapies such as these. Patients need these cures and they need your support.

 

Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help get us all closer to a world without blood cancers.

 

Thank you!

 

Erica
