"My dad was my number one fan. He was my life coach who motivated me, inspired me to set goals, and drove me to be my best whether it was in academics, athletics, in the community, or at home. There is much I haven’t done yet, but I’m determined to continue to make him proud. My dad ran the Falmouth Road Race for 14 consecutive years before he got diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer. Last year’s Falmouth Road Race was the start of my journey following his legacy, and I am so happy to be continuing that again this year.” “Dana-Farber helped my dad fight day in and day out and their patient care resulted in more time to watch me and my siblings grow up. While his cancer was too severe to cure, the amazing doctors and nurses at Dana-Farber did their best to keep him as healthy and comfortable as they could. I am so grateful to them and to everyone who has supported my family and me these past six years.” - Tassia, a member of Dana-Farber's 2024 Falmouth Road Race team #FalmouthRoadRace2024 #RunFalmouth

“I went to my OB/GYN because my husband and I were considering a third child. I wanted to be sure I was in the best health possible. When I was then told I had cervical cancer, it was a total shock. It was as if I was watching a movie screen and it wasn’t really happening to me,” shares Julie. Just a few short months later, Julie went in for a radical hysterectomy to remove her cancer and determine if further operations would be needed. What made the difference for Julie during those long post-op days was the exceptional care she received from everyone at Dana-Farber. “One week later, my hope became a reality when I was told that the cancer had not spread,” she recalls. When she found out that all margins in her follow-up PET scan were clear, Julie felt “as though she had won the life lottery." Read Julie’s story this #CancerSurvivorsMonth: https://lnkd.in/ev5qHm9P
