This September, I’ll be lacing up my runners alongside my sister – and cheering on my nephew, Wyatt, as he revs up his motocross bike – for the Multiple Myeloma March, a cause that’s deeply personal to us.

Our dad / grandpa, Bill, was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in December 2024. Since then, he’s faced this rare and complex blood cancer with incredible strength, courage, and resilience. Watching him go through treatment has shown us just how vital research, support, and access to care truly are – not just for him, but for thousands of Canadians living with myeloma.

We’re running (and Wyatt’s riding!) not just for our dad / grandpa, but for every family affected by this disease. By donating to our team, McKinney Mile Makers, you’re helping Myeloma Canada drive forward the mission to:

• Cure and prevent multiple myeloma

• Accelerate access to the best possible care

• Empower and improve the lives of those impacted

Every step (and every lap) is powered by your generosity. Thank you for standing with us.
