June 9th....
I will be participating in the Eversource Walk for Boston Children's Hospital with all money raised going to help find a cure for pediatric cancer. Why...?
In February of 2021, a child in my home daycare program, Avery, was diagnosed with ALL (acute lymphblastic leukemia). She received treatments and such over the next few years. During this time, her family traveled back and forth to Boston Children's for visits and treatments. They spent many a night in her hospital room all while taking care of her older sister, Aubree, Avery's twin brother, Luke and being pregnant with now 2 year old Cameron. Avery became a survivor and is in remission since March of 2023.
Over the course of those 2 years we have raised money in many ways. A parent in my program ran the Boston Marathon April 2023 in honor of Avery. Myself, my sister, a parent and a close friend walked the 1/2 marathon in October 2023 for the Jimmy Fund in just under 3 hours. Now we will once again don our sneakers and walking gear and jump into the 6 mile trek around the Charles River and I am once again asking for your help to raise money to fight childhood cancer once and for all.
It takes an army...Avery's Army
