Why I Ride

Dear Friends, Family, Fighters & Survivors:

On April 7th, 2017, I was diagnosed with a very serious form of Colon Cancer. It is when we heard those 3 devastating words?? YOU HAVE CANCER! The greatest fight of my life began. I celebrated my 7 Year “Cancerversary” in April and I am very humbled by the fact that I am still alive!

Over these 7+ years, I have had several surgeries including organs being removed and partially removed and various Cancer treatments including Chemotherapy and Radiation. I have had brief and temporary times of even being told there was No Evidence of Disease in my body.

Every 3 months I see my Oncology Team getting scans and blood work and they are always on the Watch for it to return. Cancer is a BEAST and sadly stronger than our healthy cells. In August 2018 I was upgraded to Stage 4 Cancer as it moved to my lungs. As recent as Friday, September 6th I was told there is another spot in my lungs and now a new surprise in my Cervical Spine/bone that we will be gearing up to address! Never a dull moment with Cancer!

Have you ever met or know someone who has fought, survived, or sadly died from Cancer? Can you Imagine a World Without Cancer? Did you know that Colon Cancer is on the rise to becoming the #2 type of Cancer being diagnosed in young people? The brilliant doctors and research teams at Siteman here in St. Louis ARE leading the charge finding amazing advancements, cures and helping people with Cancer live longer and with less side effects.

Brian and I are very passionate about this local fundraising opportunity, and WE NEED YOUR HELP! On Sunday, September 22nd we will be biking 50 miles with TEAM: Powered By HOPE for Pedal the Cause! We would love your support in this effort to raise funds to further the possibility of a World Without Cancer. 100% of your generous donation STAYS IN ST LOUIS and will directly help people like me. Any amount is a gift and so appreciated.

When we ride, we spend time reflecting on and remembering those we lost, those who are fighting and those who have beaten this devastating disease. We will honor them throughout the Pedal weekend. I live each day by Faith not by Fear and I am Powered by HOPE! = H(ow) O(rdinary) P(eople) E(ndure)

Thank you for praying for us and for your consideration for this AWESOME cause.

Love & HOPE,

Ann and Brian
