Who Gives Kudos:


Wednesday, January 10, 2007 

My best friend in the entire world recently passed away after years of battling a rare form of soft tissue bone cancer, Ewings Sarcoma. In an effort to help raise money, I asked his parents to write something for me to post on a blog about the Seany Foundation that was started in his honor. Your donation would mean a lot to both his family and me not to mention all the children around the world suffering with this horrible disease. I love you Seany and you will always be in my heart.

Sean fiercely fought Ewings Sarcoma, a rare pediatric cancer, for almost 7 years.  Through countless disappointments and setbacks, his courage never waned; his "will" to survive never faltered. He lived his life in the best way he could, trying to set an example and be a voice for other young "survivors" along the way.  Sean died fighting his unrelenting disease, but left a legacy to others, to never give up.  He endured countless treatments and procedures, some never attempted by others with Ewing's; he was a brave pioneer.  To carry on this legacy, Sean's family has started The Seany foundation.  The money raised will fund a "research chair" in his honor, at University of California San Diego's Moores Cancer Center.  Pediatric sarcomas are deadly but rare, hence, under funded.  The research will all be focused on these heartbreaking childhood diseases, especially Ewing's Sarcoma. 

Your support is deeply appreciated.  Please make your contributions to: The Seany Foundation, 7567 La Jolla Blvd., La Jolla, California, 92037mjrobins27@gmail.com.

"My older brother Tom Curry, 26, was recently told by doctors there is nothing more they can do to save him from the bone cancer Ewing Sarcoma."

Two years ago, Jan 2007, I was in this situation- holding onto some kind of hope, some kind of miracle, that a cure would be found in time to save my brother. In May 2007, as I held the hand of my hero and we shared our last words, he lost his fight.

That event didn't stop me from continuing from riding my bike from Erie PA to Palmerton PA. It only motivated me more to find a cure!

This year, I will be continuing to fight for a cure by riding another 500+ miles- this time from Burlington, Vermont to Palmerton, Pennsylvania from August 2-August 8, 2009. I will ride for those who have beat cancer, those who continue their fight, and to remember those who have battled cancer.

This is why I am asking for your support!
