Boston or BUST - Kim conquers the Boston Marathon for Dana Farber!

 I am so proud to say that I raised $23,000 for Dana Farber.  As helpless as I have felt through this entire lymphoma ordeal - crossing that finish line, looking up and seeing a CANCER FREE Summer screaming  at the top of her lungs for me in the grandstands... words cannot describe that experience.  I could barely breathe between the tears and the physical exhaustion.   Thank you so much to everyone that has helped us these past years - it felt like we all crossed that finish line today.  








BEST MEDAL EVER!!!  Thank you, Ella!!!
