Judester: September 17, 2007, I lost my only sibling, my younger brother, to colon cancer. He was only 38, and left behind a wife and two young children. Every day I miss my brother. In January 2011, I put together a team of runners to participate in the Disney Marathon weekend races in his memory. My running partner and I ran 26.2 miles and raised $3,428.90 for the Colorectal Cancer Coalition. Someday, I hope no one else has to lose their brother, sister, son, daughter, husband, wife, father, mother, to colon cancer.

"Courage does not always roar. Sometimes it is the quiet voice at the end of the day that says, I will try again tomorrow."
