I rode the Courage Classic this past weekend to give hope to Children's Hospital Colorado patients like Daniel.
Daniel is battling brain cancer. In the last three years, the teenager has had six brain surgeries and 48 days of radiation. That’s 48 days and more that cancer has stolen from his childhood. For kids like Daniel, new therapies and the possibility for a cure cannot come soon enough. He courageously rode alongside his family and teammates in the tour last year to raise money for Children's Colorado patients like him.
Daniel will not be the last child to face a life-threatening illness and his family will not be the last to navigate a frightening diagnosis.
The Courage Classic was not only a personal challenge for me, but also an opportunity to support positive outcomes and healthier futures for children.
My husband works for Children's Hospital and I hear from him how important fundraising is to the hospital, patients and families. Although I met my initial goal, I am still fundraising through August 31 and hope you will contribute to this worthy cause. Thank you.
