My son William died from a brain tumor at the age of 1. After his death, my husband, a close friend of the family and I reached out to BTFC to see if they wanted to start a walk/run in William's memory to raise money for a cure and to help others. BTFC said YES and we worked closely with them for several years to manage the race and help grow it. While we were involved in the race it was part of our healing process. It was great to do something positive with such a painful event and the folks at BTFC were wonderful to love us and help us through it. We have since moved to Florida and are not involved in the race - however, BTFC is still doing the race each year and it gets better and better every year. I praise God for the folks at BTFC and for all that they do. They are a gift to so many people...
