Real Life Hero News
Hello everyone!
I know it has been a long time since we last updated, but I found out today that one of the Real Life Heroes spotlighted on our page was recently told that her Leukemia has returned.
Sylvia was one of the first stories we told on our Real Life Heroes page. She
is taking this news head on and started an aggressive course of
treatment today. She is mostly concerned about her three daughters, who
have gone through this with her before three years ago. Sylvia has
been an active part of TNT and LLS by being an advocate for patients,
collecting hats and scarves, an Honoree, and a great friend to many. Now
she needs our support. She will be inpatient at the hospital with the same treatment as last time, Chemo injected 24hrs for a
week, then she will remain in the hospital for a month.
I ask that you please keep her in your thoughts and prayers over the next few weeks. She is a beautiful person inside and out.
After finding out that another person close to me was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia over the summer and is unable to find a bone marrow match I decided to sign up for another season with Team In Training (TNT). This time I will be competing in my first triathlon. My season was in honor of Camilia and Gina, and I will now be adding Sylvia to the people I pray for and admire. There is a link at the bottom of this page as well as a widget on the side if you would like to help the cause.
Thank you to all of you for your generosity,
ZiggyND
