Kathleen: Is married to Tom and together they have Gwenyth (9) Colin (8) and Tommy (4). Why am I so passionate about running for Dana-Farber? I am running for Mom and all those who cannot run. Our family hopes to carry on Mom's legacy and do what we can to stop cancer. I have learned that being part of the Dana-Farber team is the perfect mix of empowerment and giving. The impossible happens (running a marathon) and more importantly you get to make a difference in the world. But if you ask my sister she would tell you I am running to get new shoes.Kristin is an ICU nurse who has recently moved to Maine to be closer to Kathleen. Why am I running and fundraising again?
I owe it to the people I love to help make adifference and I feel so strongly that indeed we can one day have a world without cancer. Also without a doubt for mom. I miss her terribly and wish she was still here. I know that she would be proud.
