In September 2005, Christina was diagnosed with a brain tumor, which was subsequently removed. In 2009, as part of her project to lose her "brain tumor weight" and to get generally more fit, we decided to participate in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training Spring hike team. In this way, we could both get fit and do something good for people suffering from blood cancers. We chose the Half Dome hike for our event and set this as our goal. This blog is a chronicle of that effort. We completed our hike event, on the Panorama Trail, in June 2009, but did not hike Half Dome. On July 15, 2011, Christina hiked to the top of Half Dome, fulfilling a long time goal. Will the hike go on?
With Deepest Gratitude
We thank our many friends and family who supported us in this effort in so many ways, whether financially or being our much needed cheering section. We couldn't have done this without all of you! May God bless and keep all of you!
