My Story

You never know when your life is going to change in an instant.  For our family, that instant was when we took Brianne to the doctor for a sore throat when she was 6 years old.  Never in a million years did we imagine that she would be in surgery 24 hours later for a port placement and her first chemotherapy treatment.  After 26 months of treatment we are thrilled to say that Brianne is thriving and has been in remission for 5 years! Thank you for supporting me and the more than 300,000 kids worldwide who will be diagnosed with cancer this year. By sharing the gifts of your time, talent and money with the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, you're supporting research to give all kids with cancer a better chance for a cure.
