The Ride for Roswell is critical for the future of patient care. It is even more personal this year!!
Last November, my mom and sister were both diagnosed with breast cancer. In April, after complaining of back and stomach pains, we learned Sue has advanced stage pancreatic cancer. She is currently being treated at Moffitt Cancer Center near her hometown of Sarasota, Florida. We are grateful for the support we received from Roswell to help inform her treatment plan in the short term. Roswell is leading a clinical trial leveraging CAR T-Cells for pancreatic cancer which may be an option for Sue in the future. To make Sue''s situation more difficult Is the fact she lost her husband Tim, five years ago. He was 59. My sister is 59 now, and currently has a son, my nephew, Max. If this situation sounds familiar, it is:

I will be riding for Sue and Max, as well as every Courage of Carly family. This is what Carly wanted and this is what we will continue to do. From my family to yours, thank you for the consideration and support.
We all care about making a difference in the future of cancer research and bringing an end to this devastating disease. I am looking for your help to raise critically needed funds to support people like Sue and the thousands of patients that turn to Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center each year.
Please donate to my Ride for Roswell fundraiser. For every dollar donated to cancer research, Roswell Park is now able to leverage an additional $23 from external grants towards that research. Sue and others are counting on it!
Together - we can end cancer!
Let's do this!
