I decided to Rappel
for Cancer, something I have been wanting to do for a
couple of years. I was inspired after meeting with a 90-year-old
athlete that was rappelling for a friend and also had prostate cancer.
The following month in 2018 my Dad was diagnosed with metastatic
prostate cancer, and the last few years were very hard for him. He passed
in November of 2021 at the age of 85.
I am fund raising for the Cancer League of Colorado. The organization
is volunteers only and all donations go towards cancer research and
support. My Dad was able to get help with his medication costs through a
grant which was one less thing for him to worry about. I have known many people
that have struggled with cancer; therefore, I would like to dedicate this
experience to them as well the families of friends who have or had this
terrible disease.
In honor of my Dad I will be bringing Piglet (my Dad's golf
club cover).
Thank you so much for your support,
Viv
