Why I'm Walking

I’m walking in Steps2Cure NF for a reason that lives in my heart every single day.

Neurofibromatosis (NF) is not just something I’ve read about—it’s something my family lives with. My son Jameson, my husband Johnathan, and my father-in-law John Geary have all been affected by this genetic condition that causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body.

As a parent, there is nothing harder than knowing your child may face pain, uncertainty, and challenges you can’t simply fix. As a spouse, it’s watching someone you love carry something that has no easy answers. And as part of a family touched across generations, it’s the constant reminder that NF doesn’t just impact one person—it impacts everyone who loves them.

But we are not powerless. Every step I take is for Jameson’s future. It’s for better treatments, for more answers, and for the hope that one day NF won’t define the lives of the people I love.

The funds raised support NF Northeast—helping provide critical patient support, advocacy, and cutting-edge research that brings us closer to breakthroughs. If you’re able to give, please know that your support is more than a donation—it’s hope. It’s progress. It’s standing beside families like mine and saying, “You’re not alone in this.”

Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
