Special note from me:

Cancer sucks and we all know someone effected by it in some way.  No words will ever describe the pain this terrible disease inflicts on not only those who face it with determination and courage, but those who support and are left to grieve and share stories when the battle is lost.  

Times are tough.  Money doesn't go as far.  If you wish to support, I very much appreciate it.  Why do I do this?  I enjoy the challenge, the team atmosphere, but mostly, to honor those I've lost personally.

I paddle for:

Hannelore (Grandma)

Mark (Uncle)

Lawrence (Childhood friend)

And all those who can't.  I got you.  With a little awareness and funds, maybe your $1 finds the cure to eliminate Cancer from hurting anymore of us.  

Now, here is the canned response from Never Alone:

Nearly everyone has been touched by cancer, either through their personal experience or through someone they love. 

I’m participating because I know I am making a difference in the lives of people who are dealing with cancer every day.

Please help me reach my fundraising goal by donating to the Never Alone Cancer Foundation. 

I hope that you will join me as every dollar will make a difference.

Thank you for supporting me and more importantly providing a helping hand to Manitobans affected by cancer.
