I'm taking on the Tour de Cure
Held by Terri McConnachie
Please support me in the Tour de Cure!
This August 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.
Funds raised through the Tour de Cure will support life-saving research and enhancements to care at BC Cancer, bringing hope to cancer patients in British Columbia and making an impact around the world.
Those who know me well, will understand what a brave leep this is for me. Please consider supporting me by making a gift today. Your donation will help me achieve my fundraising goal AND motivate me in this challenge!
Why I Ride:
I am riding for every person who has had to process a cancer diagnosis following the long road of tests, procedures, scans, and consults. The fear, the hope, the learning of new terminology, trust placed in strangers, the reliance on the compassion and kindness of others and finding space within the maelstrom. For everyone who has had to tell their partner, children, parents, friends, their employer and ask for support while appearing strong when it is so hard. I am motivated by immense gratitude for the doctors, nurses, professionals, and support staff who worked together to save my life and support my spirit. I am riding so that others will have that same opportunity and to acknowledge the indomitable spirit, grief, and courage of those people I crossed path with during treatment. I will never forget them and their stories.
Thank you so much for your support!
