Help Carry the Light of Hope
Welcome to our Light The Night Walk home page. Earlier this year both Dipti and Brody were diagnosed with cancer. They are currently going through an aggressive treatment program that will help cure them of this disease and ensure many cancer-free years to come.
As you can see from the photo above, they continue to smile through it all. Everyday they remind us of the absolute strength of the human spirit. In honor of their strength, and in honor of all those currently battling this disease, Scott and I have formed Team Brody to raise money for this year's Light The Night Walk.
The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide evening walk to raise awareness and
funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
We need your support to help accelerate cures and hope for patients and their families.
Although research is responsible for increasing survival rates for these diseases, the battle is far from over.
Did you know that:
- Every five minutes, someone in this country is diagnosed with blood cancer.
Every nine minutes, someone dies.
- Leukemia is the leading cause of disease-related death among children under age 15.
- Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers.
- The myeloma survival rate is only 30 percent.
Please make a donation to support Team Brody. By doing so, you'll be helping so many in the fight against cancer.
Thanks for your support!
Eric and Scott
