Dear friends
In August of 2015 my sister Martha was diagnosed with Metastatic Ewing’s Sarcoma. Seven years later, on April 15th of this year, Martha died at 20 years old.
This is obviously a sad story, but it is also one of hope. Martha lived an extremely full, if short, life, and if it weren't for the amazing folks at the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Children's Hospital Colorado it might have been even shorter.
Something that always inspired me about Martha is that she never let cancer dictate the course of her life. For example, she would go on mountain bike rides when her platelet count was so low from chemo that a minor scrape could have meant a trip to the hospital. Martha inspires me to find courage, hope and joy every day, no matter what life throws at me.
Please help me and my family thank Children's Hospital by donating any amount you can. Every bit truly counts!
