Summer Tracker Challenge

I completed the Summer Tracker Challenge on Sept. 30th. I had dedicated that challenge to my dad and fight against his lung cancer.

I felt the need to do something proactive. It gave me the strength and energy to be fully present for my dad. I won "Most Athletic Physique," in the challenge! It was such an honor to win, for both my dad and me. Here are my before and afters:

My Sister's Wedding

My sister really wanted to have our dad walk her down the aisle, and she got her wish. He had just completed his last dose of chemo, and was well enough to fulfill her wish. It was a beautiful day, and it felt so good to celebrate a happy moment together, as a family.
