I periodically train with a group called Team in Training,   I  have returned for a 3rd season to train for the LA Marathon.  This time the honored hero has struck my heart,and I am running for Taylor.  Taylor Hook is currently 16 months old, at Taylor's 9 month check up , her doctor found a swollen gland on her neck . Her parents assumed it was an infection since she no other symptoms, and treated it accordingly. In April 2008 , after 2 months of no response to antibiotics, and the gland began to grow , she was diagnosed with Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma, a form of Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, It is extremely rare for a child of her age to have cancer and especially lymphoma . Her Cancer was in Stage II when it was diagnosed , which is very unusual for this kind of cancer, ( usually Stage III or IV ) . She completed a 7 week chemotherapy treatment plan at Childrens Hospital of Orange County  in Orange ,CA and on July 14,2008 her doctors told her parents she was in remission. She continues to see the doctors at Children's Hospital of Orange County  every month to make sure her cancer does not relapse.   Taylor's cancer has a 85% cure rate, which is almost as good as it gets for a cancer diagnosis. She is the everyday hero and her parents are happy everyday they get to spend with her.   By sponsoring me in training and completing the LA Marathon, the money goes to people like Taylor, her family, and research.   Please donate for Taylor.
