Hi All-

I have been selected to run the Chicago Marathon as part of Tedy's Team. This is a HUGE honor to be a part of this team. Not only will I be running the marathon on Oct.13th, I will be celebrating my birthday on that day as well!!  Once again, I am asking you to help me meet my fundraising goal of $7,500 and support Tedy's Team. The best birthday gift anyone could honor me with is a donation made to Tedy's Team.  

As always, I will be running this marathon in memory and of my Dad, Aunts, cousins and all those whose lives are affected by stroke. If there is someone you wish for me to run in memory of or honor, please let me know and as I run those miles I will hold them close and in thought.

The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback!

Tedy's Team was originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl and just days after returning from his first Pro Bowl. to learn more about who we are, please see our website, www.tedysteam.org.

We are honored to be part of the Official Charity Program of the Bank of America Chicago Marathon.

Let's elevate the awareness of the warning signs of stroke, which are best remembered by using the acronym BE FAST, which stands for: 

• Balance Difficulties
• Eyesight Changes
• Face Drooping
• Arm Weakness
• Speech Difficulties - and if you notice any of those warning signs, it's...
• TIME TO CALL 9-1-1.

As always with so much gratitude,

 Sue
