Hi Friends,
I am writing to you again this year to ask for your help in raising funds to support Josh Lombardi's fight against Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT) a rare and very aggressive sarcoma. As you know, I've known this amazing young man since he was born 34 years ago. Josh has been courageously fighting against this disease for over a year, undergoing multiple rounds of chemo and other therapies to try and shrink his tumours. Josh has had a tough year but a positive one and he is seeing some good results with the therapies he is undergoing.
Through your generous donations Dr Torsten Neilsen set up a lab at UBC researching treatments for Josh's type of cancer. I feel grateful and encouraged at the excitement Dr. Neilsen and his team has for creating new therapies to help fight this sarcoma and in the positive results Josh is seeing.
Josh's goal is to be a statistical outlier in his fight against this disease. Your support will help him inch closer to that goal. Please know that all your donations go directly to support Dr. Nielsen's lab at the Jack Bell Research Centre.
This year is different as the tour de cure bike ride has been replaced with a "Workout to Conquer Cancer" encompassing 31 days of activity through May. There will be a combination of group and personal activities. I will keep you informed of my activities in the hopes you can join me through May.
Your support means the world to me and I am ever grateful for any contribution you can make. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Kelli
