Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page for the upcoming Brain Tumor Walk and Angel Adventure® - A Walk and Community Day to support the brain tumor cause. By making a contribution through this site, you will support my fundraising efforts and help make a difference in the fight against brain tumors!

I spent my entire adult life preparing for a career to help others rehabilitate from catastrophic diagnoses. After almost 2 years working as a physical therapist, I received shocking news that I was the recipient of a catastrophic diagnosis. In September 2005, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I became someone I've spent years preparing to help.  I have accomplished a lot since my diagnosis but I am still surprised at what I have done and what I intend to do. I still can't believe I pulled this off!  I look in the mirror every morning and I recognize the face staring back at me, but something is different. In his eyes, I see sadness, anger, but most importantly hope. Hope for my own recovery. Hope that someday there will be a "cure". Hope that another child doesn't have to lose a parent to cancer or a brain tumor. Hope that conversely another parent doesn't have to lose a child. Hope that we don't have to lose anymore loved ones to these horrible diseases. The rest of my story isn't written. I'm still improving and re-creating myself. I've learned a lot about myself already. All I know is that I'm going to fully enjoy living the rest of my story. My story as a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKiQwAstgls
