Blood Cancer United

A large group of family and friends gather closely together under a covered outdoor patio, surrounded by warm evening light and hanging flower baskets. Music equipment and microphones sit nearby, hinting at a heartfelt event. In the center, loved ones stand united in support, strength, and hope—showing deep love and solidarity for someone in their circle whose life has been touched by blood cancer.

I watched my older sister courageously beat stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Her strength and resilience through the darkest of days were so inspiring, and I can't wait to represent Blood Cancer United and Team In Training (TNT) in this year's TCS NYC Marathon — running for all who are affected by this disease and helping raise money for future research.
