On March 4, 2022 I was diagnosed with Stage II Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. I spent the next year in treatment including a bilateral mastectomy, chemotherapy and radiation. 

Today I can stand up tall and say that I’m a survivor and that’s thanks in part to the incredible medical care I received and the years of research behind it. 

I’m also where I am today thanks to the incredible support of my friends and family. Please consider continuing to support me by donating to my run. 

To show my support for all Canadians impacted by breast cancer, I am participating and fundraising for this year’s Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure on Sunday, October 1, 20233.

Please donate today. I believe better treatment options and survival outcomes are possible. Together, we can give Canadians impacted by breast cancer a reason to have hope. And we can help change the future for all.

Thank you! I appreciate your generous support.

P.S. Did you know? Fundraising $300 can fund help provide healthy home-cooked meals for guests at a Canadian Cancer Society lodge during their stay. Lodge guests receive wholesome foods like fresh fruits and vegetables, and meals customized to their dietary needs – including those arising from cancer treatment, like liquid and soft food diets.
