Chris Doktor's Ride
Why I Ride ...
This year (2010), my ride - and your support - are, again, in memory of my 9-year-old daughter Jessie. In October 2007 she succumbed to the treatment and did not survive. And this year, I get to ride, again, in the PMC with our surviving daughter, Sarah. This is the second time we get to ride for this cause together as father and daughter.
Oncologists Have Added Hope
In our lifetime, Dana Farber has achieved a striking success rate for children with acute leukemias. They continue to set standards for the successful treatment of solid tumors in children, too, such as neuroblastoma.
Keeping Jessie Alive
Dana Farber kept Jessie's cancer in check for six years, while different sources of hope emerged since her original 2001 diagnosis. This is our third year that we continue our fund to carry on her legacy - the BRIGHT HAPPY POWER Fund.
What We Can Do To Help - Fund The Hope
Every year the financial burden of discovery and research for treating and beating childhood cancers has fallen more heavily on private institutions such as Dana Farber's Jimmy Fund. Support us in whatever measure you're able to do so. Your help is quantifiable; it has helped Dana Farber's Jimmy Fund to keep Jessie alive for six years.
