I'm Riding For
Angelica Marie Tchokreff

I have lymphoma cancer. Cancer killed both of my sisters and my mother and her mother. It is an on-going battle. My doctor said on July 2nd that I'm in remission and he would like to declare me cured now. I still have a mass the size of a soccer ball inside me. I have to get a stent replaced once a year because of that mass. I'm riding for Angelica Marie Tchokreff. She passed away in 2005. I sang a song I wrote for her at her funeral. My older brother was a Navy Veteran who committed suicide. My nephew was a Marine Veteran who also committed suicide. I'm lucky to be in remission. I almost died 3 times in 3 different hospitals... My new mission is to go to Hawai'i and ride all the way around every island to raise awareness about Veteran suicide and for the Native Hawai'ian Americans.
My Story
Starting September 1st, I'm taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it. In 2016-2017, I rode a bicycle and pulled a trailer more than 3333 miles to raise awareness about Veteran suicide and for the Native Americans. #NoDAPL #NoKXL I felt like Superman! Then I found out I have cancer. I'm in remission now. PLEASE help me raise awareness and money for this worthy cause and THANKS IN ADVANCE! Support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
