Proud of my daughters Madison (left) and Nicole (right) as they completed the Chicago Marathon this past Sunday and raised over $2,600 for The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The conditions were really perfect, partly sunny and near 60 degrees. They ran it in 4 hours and 53 minutes, and finished together. A year ago Nicole was doing a six month course of Chemotherapy to fight Stage 3 Colon Cancer. She has since scanned clear 3x and is doing great. The girls ran on behalf of their sister Jenny, who has CF. Huge thanks to everyone who donated and sent words of encouragement, prayers and good wishes over the last year or so. You all made such a difference.
