Join Our Family's Zumba Fundraiser for Myeloma
Hello everyone,
I know this is a bit short notice, but I’ve been busy reaching out to many people that I couldn’t post here until today. I am my wife’s caregiver, and I want to share a little about her incredible determination. She never stops seeking answers and doing everything she can to contribute toward a better quality of life and hopefully, one day, a cure! Last year, with the support of a wonderful group of friends and our family (myself and our two daughters - 13 and 17), she created an event to raise funds for research. Since HealthTree has been very supportive of her and has been helping to accelerate this important work, we're excited to continue making a difference together and to run this event once more.
The Myeloma Awareness Movement – Zumba Party campaign goal is “LET’S MOVE until a STOP is put to this disease, to keep coming back!”
Just like multiple myeloma, Zumba can be very challenging for most people, but with the right strategy and support we can find a way to overcome the difficulties and to adapt!
Moreover, Zumba’s rhythm is contagious, happy, energetic, and fun, and we all need that! (Trust me, I have zero skills, but I had a blast last year).
Respecting health conditions and abilities, your Zumba moves can be anything: the dance itself, just singing, or stomping your feet, clapping your hands, etc. The most important thing is to MOVE and feel GOOD!
