Please support me in the Tour de Cure!
In August of 2024 I will be embarking on a cycling challenge. I have committed to participate in the Tour de Cure presented by Wheaton Precious Metals to help BC Cancer Foundation break down cancer.
I am riding for Ron, Darlene, Bernie, my dad (Robert) and for everyone that has received a cancer diagnosis, and the people that love, support or grieve for them.
I was diagnosed with stage 2b cervical cancer in 2021 and I am able to ride only because of the advances in medical technology and treatment options, the dedication and heart of trained professionals, and the support of my family and community.
The diagnosis of cancer is not always the dreaded sentence it has been in the past and the cure and management of the disease is possible! But not for everyone. WE NEED TO KEEP GOING!
This ride 200km in two days is going to be hard. Yikes! I am determined, GRATEFUL for the opportunity and I ask for your support. Money raised by my team, the Wheelin Warriors of the North stays in the north!
My friend and colleague, Ron, passed away recently following the diagnosis of an aggressive cancer. He encouraged me and our team to ride with pride for those of us who cant.
We will, Ron! We will.
