A note from Meryl, one of our Dana-Farber charity runners
“Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund have given us a team of amazing doctors and so much hope for Adelia’s future. We have never felt luckier to live close to Boston and the best treatments in the country.”
The 2023 race was particularly significant for Meryl Summers, who ran Falmouth for the first time in honor of her daughter Adelia, a pediatric patient in Dana-Farber’s Jimmy Fund Clinic. Inspired by the 8-year-old’s strength, bravery, determination, and resilience, Meryl runs in hopes that the funds raised will bring Dana-Farber physician-scientists closer to finding a cure.
“Participating in the Falmouth Road Race is much more than running a race,” says Meryl. “For us, it is about elevating awareness for pediatric brain cancer, showing unity and support for Adelia, and raising crucial funds for clinical trials. There is a large gap between a breakthrough in a lab and getting the treatments into the bodies of patients who need them most. Our contribution will hopefully reduce this gap and make promising new trials available for everyone who has this horrible disease.”
“Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund have given us a team of amazing doctors and so much hope for Adelia’s future,” Meryl continues. “We have never felt luckier to live close to Boston and the best treatments in the country.”
