Fonting Yu's story

Cancer lives among us. I imagine we all know at least one person that has been impacted.
My person is my sister who is diagnosed with Glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive types of brain tumors. We found out suddenly when she lost consciousness and fell into a seizure. We had just finished a high school graduation lunch for her oldest son.
Due to the location, it is not advisable to operate as primary functions like body movement, sensation, language, and vision could be impacted.
She is currently undergoing treatment at Georgetown University Hospital.
This year my family and I are proud to unite and ride alongside her neuro-oncologist Dr. Komlodi-Pasztor in support of cancer research.
