Leukemia & Lymphoma Society | Team in Training
We had a lot of fight left last October when my husband, Peter Schriber unexpectedly succumbed to complications arising from the treatment of his Peripheral T Cell Lymphoma diagnosis.
And we knew that our community had a lot of fight left too. We felt your love and support throughout Peter's seven+ month battle. You were our cancer fighting team; you were in it with us.
Since Peter's passing, I am realizing again that it takes more than one person to make up a team. That's why I'm asking you to donate to my fundraising page in memory of Peter!
Please follow along and consider donating as I climb Mt. Kilimanjaro to fight blood cancers during Peter's birthday month.
It was as Peter trained for and completed a triathalon in 2019 that the PTCL became apparent. Even pre-diagnosis, he fought the good fight, diligently battling this rare and terrible disease. Despite pandemic lockdowns, relentless treatment and many setbacks, Peter's optimism and grace motivated a beautiful quality of life throughout his cancer journey. Peter faced each day with courage and grit.
By participating as a member of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's TNT, I am raising funds to help find cures and ensure access to treatments for blood cancer patients like our Peter.
Your donation will help fund treatments that save lives every day. You may not know it, but every single donation helps save a life with breakthrough therapies. Research and the funding to do it is more important than ever.
Patients need these cures and we need your support. I sincerely hope that Peter's battle will help someone down the road. His case, along with our fundraising efforts have the opportunity to shed light on new solutions to health.
...So that couples like us can grow old together, despite complications with blood cancer.
Please make a donation in support of my efforts with LLS & TNT and help get us all closer to a world without blood cancers.
I will be carrying Peter in my heart as I make this epic climb for a cure. Please make a donation and allow me to carry your name up Mt. Kilimanjaro.
PER ASPERA AD ASTRA.
