If you don't know, I was diagnosed with cancer in 2014.  Since my doctors and I beat it into submission, I've looked for ways to raise money for cancer research. 

This is my 3rd year participating in the 1-mile Open Water Swim with Swim Across America, and I’m excited to make an even bigger fundraising SPLASH  this year!  To celebrate 10 years being cancer-free, I’m going BIG and hoping to raise $10,000  

I doubt you know anyone that's NOT been affected by cancer in some way.  Whether personally, a family member, friend, coworker or your favorite bartender.  Wouldn't it be cool to be part of the generation that turns the corner in the fight?  What if after hearing "You have cancer" (the 3 scariest words I've ever been told)  - the next 3 words you hear are "And there's hope." 

If you are able, please support me by making a gift. The researchers, doctors and bio-scientists we are funding are in our community, and they are the next generation of cancer pioneers. Without Swim Across America early stage funding, the Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center is not able to conduct trials that can lead to breakthroughs that can save lives. Thank you for helping make an impact in the fight to find a cure!
