My name is CJ. My wife Annie has been fighting breast cancer for two years. She is one of the strongest people I know, and watching her fight this disease has changed me in ways I'm still processing.

I'm not great at asking for help. But the medical bills don't care about that — and neither does cancer.

On April 25th, I'm running the Nashville Rock & Roll Marathon. I've been training for months, and every mile I run is for Annie.

But right now, today, our family needs some help getting through this season. The costs of treatment, the financial strain of two years of fighting, and the toll it takes on a household are real.

If you feel moved to give, thank you. Every dollar helps us breathe a little easier and keep our focus where it belongs — on Annie.
