Meet Sarah

Sarah is a 34 y.o wife and mom. She has been married to her hubby, Jeremy for 9 years and they have 2 boys, ages 7 and 6. Sarah works for her local university helping to run a program for students with intellectual disabilities that allows them to access the college campus. She spends her limited spare time with friends and family going to movies or catching up over dinner.

Look around at any incredible mom you know, that’s Sarah. She was diagnosed last December with stage 3 HER2+ invasive ductal carcinoma, a type of breast cancer that had spread to a lymph node in her left underarm. She has completed chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation and is currently undergoing immunotherapy. Again, look around at the awesome moms and wives in your life. Sarah could be any one of them.

Meet Daniel

Daniel's battle started early June with vomiting and blurred vision. By Aug 7th, he was having surgery to remove a brain tumor. He has 30 days of radiation followed by chemo to look forward to. Daniel is one of those hearts of gold kind of guys. He likes to play basketball, football, and Nintendo Switch. Oh yeah, did I mention? He’s 11.

His favorite subject in school is math, while English he’d be happy to live without. He hides his favorite snacks in his baby blanket and hopefully his future girlfriend will never find out about that. But seriously, if that doesn’t shout sweet and innocent, I don’t know what does. He has an older brother (Ethan) in high school so mom and dad are balancing between Ethan’s activities, Daniel’s treatments way down at Rady’s, and their jobs. This time, take a look at your kids. If you don’t have any, look at your nieces and nephews or your friend’s kids. They could be Daniel. What he is fighting, they could be fighting.
