Pedal the Cause

We are proud to be joining Pedal the Cause in the fight against cancer. We know that it takes world-class research to create a world without cancer. And by participating in Pedal the Cause, we know that 100% of our donations will go directly to accelerating cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and St. Louis Children's Hospital.

Felise was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma in February 2021. She had found a rapidly growing lump on her neck a few months earlier and after a lot of waiting and tests we found out it was cancer. She was a rockstar through four rounds of RCHOP chemo, paused her life, stopped working, lost her hair, put our kids in full time daycare and beat the crap out of it. Now 4 years later, we are back to normal almost like it never happened 🙂

"The one gift cancer gives you is the realization of how incredible just a normal day feels. Small things like an expression one of my kids makes can bring tears of joy to my eyes, their head on my shoulder feels even more meaningful than it used to. Doug's smile, dinner with family, being with friends, the sun on my face and the sound of the rain, all SO GOOD. (I guess I've always been cheesy like this but now its like woah!) Thanks to all of people who fundraised before me, I feel like I have been given a second chance at life. All I did was sit and receive medication and kept my head up, while science, doctors and research saved my life. It's my turn to give back and raise money for Lymphoma and give someone else the same feeling that I just described. Help defeat the darkness of cancer. Please join us by registering for our team or making a donation today to continue to help patients and their families across the country!"
