This is our journey with our daughter Shannon through treatment for, and ultimately death from, a brainstem glioma tumor. We continue to write about our lives after Shannon's passing as we try to carry on her spirit. We are writing from the heart - parental discretion advised.
Brains Together For A Cure
We want to get the word out about an upcoming event that we will be a part of again this year - so mark your calendars and join us October 6th if you can.
In memory of Shannon, we will be walking at the BTFAC fundraiser. This is a local organization and all proceeds from this event go directly to the Mayo Clinic to fund brain tumor research.
In addition, Dan has been asked to be a speaker at this year's event. A chance to share our story, raise some money, and remember our girl.
We'd love to have a whole crew of people sporting Shannon T-shirts - any one of the many versions that are out there - so come join us!
