UPDATE: THANK YOU! 

I feel like I cannot even begin to say thank you to each and every one of you. What started as a goal of $500 (and me, nervous I wouldn't make that goal!) has turned into almost $3,000 in ONE MONTH for CJS Foundation! Not only am I excited this money will go towards research, but I am flattered and humbled that you all took money out of your own pockets to celebrate me. My heart is bursting. I can't wait to tell John what we have done and let him know that he is still making such an impact on my life and the lives of others. Thank you all again!

As some of you may know, I lost my boyfriend to CJD in 2020. We had always talked about the year of our "Big Birthdays," and while we won't be celebrating together in the Maldives like we talked about, I wanted to ensure he was not forgotten while I celebrate this milestone.

So, for my 40th birthday, I am asking that, in lieu of gifts, drinks, bottles of wine and fancy dinners, you would please donate in his memory.
