My personal message:
Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page.

Did you know that 100 children and adults, every day in the united states are diagnosed with primary brain tumors?

Did you know that brain tumors are the 3rd leading cause of cancer death for children and young adults?
When diagnosed with a brain tumor, the warmth and vision provided by the National Brain Tumor Foundation is so very important. While patients are fighting for the strength needed to survive, NBTF provides priceless knowledge, support, and information. Each month, NBTF receives inquiries from more than 1,000 patients, family members and friends. I know just how valuable their support and information regarding treatments, medical centers, support groups and so much more really is.

As many of you know, I myself am a 7 year brain tumor survivor! It is my honor and privilege to be participating in the Racing Ahead team for the National Brain Tumor Foundation. Research needs funding to find a cure for brain tumors. Patients need the quality of their life improved. The brain tumor community needs help and hope to survive. Please Join me. With your help and participation in the dream of finding a cure to this outrageous problem, we will make a difference.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
