Welcome to Daisy's SAA personal page!
Hello friends & colleagues!
In mid-September, I will be swimming in my 14th Open Water Swim Across America being held again at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Collectively, we swim to raise awareness & to support the SAA Research all over the US. Locally, we support the SAA Lab at the Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore where significant advancements in immunotherapy are being made, but there is so much more work to do, so we soldier on. As in past years, we swim in honor of those stricken with cancer and those whom we have lost.
This year, 2023, I swim for:
Ken Zuber, is working through year 2 of cancer treatments. It’s difficult … Vick and Ken have the new distraction of moving to anew house in Santa Fe and are supported by many new Santa Fe friends... We continue to stand by you pr side Ken! I wish Gavin and I were closer!
Claudia will be working on finishing her treatments to beat this Stage 3 Breast cancer!
Joanne Newman, continues to keep her battles with cancer at bay and she is still painting and enjoying this outlet!
Adam Melkon Debus, Adam's son continue to take one day at a time.
Tammy Greentree, has continued to get good reports back!
Friends like Matt LaMotte, Sharon Thompson, Russell Remy, Flori’s husband Iku,continue their battle! We bless his heart.
We have other dear friends who’s daughter is fighting breast cancer and her doctors are very optimistic since it was caught early! … and they are in our prayers too!
All of these friends above have been courageously fighting their individual battles and we pray for remissions for all! I admire each one of these amazing friends and add them to the list of all of those whom I have honored in the past 13 years.
Know that those of you for whom I have swum in years past remain in my heart and prayers!
So, it would be wonderful if you can support this effort to help me reach my goal this year and each gift of any size makes a difference…Just click on the link to donate on this site…
