Story

This wonderful event allows me to combine two passions, my love of bike riding and how much I hate cancer! Pedal the Cause is a perfect opportunity for you to do something to create a world without cancer. I am living proof that progress is being made in the fight to cure cancer. Hard to believe that it’s now been 15 years since I was first seen at Siteman Cancer Center at Washington University in St. Louis and received the surprising news that I had non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, SLL/CLL. After 10 years the clinical trial I was in monitoring the effectiveness of an oral immune therapy medication has now ended. I consider myself so fortunate that this drug worked to keep my symptoms in check and side effects minimal-I am lucky that Imbruvica is covered by my insurance but it is super expensive. My hope is that more people with lymphoma/leukemia will be able to take this medicine available too. My husband Reid and I are riding in PTC for the 13th year and our 11th year riding on Team Leukemia. Since its inception, this amazing event has raised over $51 million with 100% is given directly to fund cancer research. Please join the Cause, any donation you are able to make will help make this world without cancer happen in our lifetime. Know that we are winning, I'm living proof❤️💪😄

Thank you, I'm forever grateful, Keri
