Welcome To My Fundraising Page.
Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. Thanks to your support, my efforts, will help fund the therapies and treatments and help save lives today.
LLS's continued advancements over the years, are responsible for the blood cancer survival rate doubling and tripling; in some cases, the survival rate has even quadrupled.
And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. They're even being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. LLS funded drugs are now being tested for patients with other non-cancerous diseases like Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.
We really are changing the face of blood cancer!
All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.
Please visit my Web site often and bring friends who would also like to donate!
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!

Dear Sami: I am both proud and grateful that you are raising money for cancer research -- this is a cause that is very personal to me. In June 2016 I was hospitalized for a foot infection. One of the routine scans I underwent discovered a lymphoma behind my right knee. I had 6 sessions of chemotherapy and 15 sessions of radiation. Fortunately, subsequent testing indicated that I was cancer free, but going forward I will need to be tested at 6-month intervals. Some cancers, such as lymphoma, do not distinguish among the age of people. In fact, I was 82 when my lymphoma was detected, the same age as your Grandfather. Your Grandfather and I started kindergarten at the age of five and we have remained very close friends through the years. I wish you every success in your fundraising efforts. Herb Gildenhorn
