Welcome to my fundraising page!

In 2014, my doctor suggested I get another colonoscopy but I told her the last one was good and I wasn't due for another 5 years. She insisted because there was history of colon cancer in my family. Luckily, I listened to her and a polyp was discovered without clear margins. I had surgery and have been cancer free for 9.5 years.

My message to you is even if you don't have symptoms schedule a colonoscopy.

Please join me in supporting the Colon Cancer Coalition’s mission to reduce barriers to colorectal cancer screening and educate the public about life saving colorectal cancer screening options. Together, we can make a difference.

Did you know that colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer? Only lung cancer kills more Americans each year than colon cancer, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Regular, early screening is essential to catching this disease before it begins and in its earliest stages. 

Survival rate is over 90% when caught in early stages.

By donating and sharing my page, you can directly help people that are impacted by colon cancer and help save lives.

Thank you for your support! We are stronger together.
