race for hope

Mother’s Day is a tough day for me, having lost mine 3 and a half years ago to brain cancer (learn more about my mom here.) I’m glad, though, that it falls when it does. May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month!

This past Sunday, November 1st, was the Race for Hope Philadelphia! It’s an annual race held by the National Brain Tumor Society which raises awareness and money for research in the fight against brain tumors. This year was their 10th year in Philly!

Each year, my Husband and I attend the Race for Hope Philadelphia on the first Sunday of November. This year will be our fifth year, and we decided to do more than just participate- we decided to volunteer!
