My 2025 Get Your Rear in Gear - Boston Personal Page

Welcome back to my hot mess of a fundraiser page!! It's sloppy, erratic and full of swears, but it's from my heart. It's where I keep Russ now, tucked away inside. I already love that you even got this far to read my words about this walk.
It's my second year at this and I still have a little anger to settle with colon cancer.
It took my friend from me and left me a little broken two years ago. Many of you knew, or knew of Russ. He was my guy, he made me happy. Russ helped me survive losing my best friend while he was going through treatment for colon cancer. That's who he was. It was never about him, nor did he want it to be about him. Russ should still be here, but he's not. I'd like to punch colon cancer in the fucking face but that's not an option, so this is how I'll deal with it. Walking 60 miles for Russ, raising money and awarenss as I do it. My fight back.
Since my last walk, I've been told stories of families, friends and strangers that have been diagnosed or lost their lives to colon cancer. I know my hurt is not the only hurt that exists, but it's mine. This shit is real. I don't know any other way to deal with this, so here I am asking for help from my people, AGAIN.
You can read on about the facts about colon cancer below, but I'll leave you with this I adore every one of you!! All that have supported me after losing Russ. The last two years have internally sucked. I've wished for time to move fast just to get through it already, be in a better place, less sadness, but here I am still…. stuck here in it.
As for my friends… all your words, stories you've shared, the donations made and steps taken with me, remind me everyday that Russ won't be forgotten.
This is for you Russ. I miss you madly. XOXO

This is my page and I can write what I want!!
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.
