Thanks so much Phil, and every member of the Genzyme team !!! I will now be able to run in the 115th Boston Marathon, to raise awareness for SPS. Hope training is going well, and to meet the team. Cheers
Thank you Frank for running on my behalf. It was an honor to be represented by you and Genzyme. Let’s keep up the fight to find a cure for Pompe disease.
Brian, I hope you’re well on the way to recovery. Good luck!!!
I want someone to run for POLYMYOSITIS my rare muscle disease. I have pain level nine everyday of my life. So If someone can’t run for me would like donation.
I’m so excited to be a Patient Partner again this year! It was great meeting Kai last week – what an amazing athlete! Thank you everyone for all you do and thank you for running for those of us who no longer can. Hope you have better weather on the day of the Marathon than you did for the relay.
