As I lace up my shoes to run the Boston Marathon with the Miles for Miracles team, I'm driven by a deeply personal connection to Boston Children's Hospital (BCH). From my own battles with asthma, BCH became a beacon of hope, transforming my life through the care and guidance of incredible professionals like Dr. Rima Rachid.
My journey from struggling with asthma to embracing running and aiming for the Boston Marathon is a testament to the life-changing impact of BCH. Now, I'm honored to give back to the place that helped reclaim my life.
Your support matters. Every dollar raised funds the very best medical care, breakthrough research and vital support services for kids like my patient partner, Autumn. She's a remarkable 8-year-old whose story mirrors the resilience and hope found at BCH. Born battling astronomical bilirubin levels, teetering on the brink of liver failure, she thrives today as a vibrant dancer and loving sister, thanks to the exceptional care she received at Boston Children's. Your donation will:
- help children from your town and across the world get a second chance at life;
- give kids battling the most complex diseases care they can't find anywhere else;
- fuel 3,000+ researchers working to develop new treatments and cures;
- support patient programs, like music and art therapy, to let kids be kids, even during long hospital stays;
- help patient families in crisis with urgent needs, such as food, clothing and housing;
- deliver the most compassionate, leading-edge care to every child who needs it.
Join me in supporting the incredible kids and families at Boston Children's Hospital. Your contribution creates miracles and changes lives. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me!
