This September, I will Be Bold & Go Gold during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in Honor of Andrew Mercier. He was diagnosed with leukemia this past April, just a couple days before his 10th Birthday which he then celebrated in the hospital as a result.  Andrew is honestly one of the strongest ppl I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. He has not missed a beat through the process of learning of his diagnosis, Surgery, poking and prodding, lengthy hospital stays, chemo, terrible aches and pains, missing out on summer vacation, and the very recent news that his treatment method is changing to immunotherapy since chemo wasn’t working. He continues to maintain a #winning positive attitude, grace, and a feverish determination to crush cancer.  He is the epitome of BADASS, frankly I’m honored to know him and am humbled by his immense resiliency.  Participating in this event with the support of family and friends is the least we can do in an effort to bring awareness to childhood cancer. In addition to Andrew, I will be running in memory of Armstrong Zortman, in honor of Corbin Norrod who crushed his cancer and JP Ickes (#JPStrong) who, along w/ my friend Rik Zotman, originally inspired me to get involved in this event for the first time last year.  I’m happy to share JP Ickes won his battle and rang the bell all before celebrating his 1st Birthday this past July! Please consider joining my team, or making a donation, in a combined effort to Encourage Andrew, his Mom and Dad (Colleen and Paul), and other children and families fighting this vicious battle! I appreciate you, and I know the Mercier family does as well! THANK YOU!! #TeamAndrew #crushcancer #winning #FUCancer #Cancersucks
