#cancer is just #badcode.
I have lost relatives and co-workers to cancer. I lost an uncle in the 1980's and another uncle is also battling stage IV cancer today. I am convinced that we as humanity will crack the code soon, connecting biology and technology to unravel the ability to reprogram DNA no differently than we recode apps or computers.
Please join me in believing that we are going to do this. Fundraising and awareness for research like this is what gets us there. Every bit helps. It starts with believing that we are going to do this.
On August 11th I’ll be participating in the Cigna/Elliot Corporate 5K Road Race in downtown Manchester to benefit improvements at the Elliot Regional Cancer Center, via the Mary & John Elliot Charitable Foundation.
I’m raising funds for cancer care improvements at The Elliot including new tumor mapping technology, “breath hold” technology, the purchase of new linear accelerators for enhanced tumor detection and treatment and planning for a major new cancer center for southern New Hampshire to benefit your family, friends and our neighbors.
The Elliot Health System (EHS) is the largest provider of comprehensive healthcare services in Southern New Hampshire. The cornerstone of EHS is Elliot Hospital, 296-bed acute care facility located in Manchester. Established in 1890, Elliot Hospital offers Southern New Hampshire communities caring, compassionate and professional patient service regardless of race, religion, national origin, gender, age, disability, marital status, sexual preference, or ability to pay.
I hope you can make a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal. Your donation supports the Elliot Health System, specifically the Elliot Regional Cancer Center, and is tax deductible.
