Just back from the San Jose LIVESTRONG Challenge and it was awesome. The community in Northern California was so supportive of our movement and I was blown away by their generosity. Now our attention turns to the LIVESTRONG Summit in Columbus. The entire Columbus community has been so supportive and The Ohio State University team led by President Gordon Gee and Cancer Center Director and CEO of the James Cancer Hospital Mike Caligiuri have been incredible hosts during our planning of the summit.

The Summit is going to be a huge success due to the passion, energy, and determination of the delegates who will be attending the event. I can’t wait to meet everyone there. I also can’t wait to hear from Senator McCain about his plans to address the burden of cancer in our country. We are honored to have him joining us. The grassroots cancer movement is as strong as ever, and growing in size and strength every day. I can’t wait to see what will happen after the summit and into the future. Huge opportunity awaits as we strive to eradicate this disease in our lifetime. We can do it working together.

Each and every day I am honored to hear stories of amazing individuals who battle this terrible disease with strength and dignity. To all those who have survived, and all those whom we have lost, we owe this movement and we must not stop until we succeed.

Let’s continue to be ruthless and relentless.
