Here we go again...On Sunday, September 11th, Jackey's Cheerleaders will be walking from my house in Southland Park while other teams walk in their own neighborhoods. This year's community walk is important to all those living with myeloma and their families. All funds raised are used for research, advocacy for equitable treatments and educational materials. Most importantly this annual walk brings hope to those of us living with myeloma and that is priceless!
In this 5th year of my being team captain, as well as co organizer of the Winnipeg walk, I am so grateful for the support I have received from so many. I have been so blessed in my journey to have met incredibly courageous myeloma patients. Unfortunately, I have known too many who lost their battle with this insidious cancer. I will walk in their memory and with the hope that through ongoing research a cure will be found.
I look forward to this year's walk and hope you will join Dave and I as we walk to make myeloma matter!
