Dear Family and Friends,

I have been given a once in a lifetime opportunity to run the NYC Marathon on Sunday, November 3rd. I will be running 26.2 miles in honor of my daughter Addison (Addie) who was diagnosed with Dup15q Syndrome in 2018. Addie turned 5 this August and my goal is to raise $5000 in her honor. Addie is a very special little girl who we are all blessed to have in our lives. She has a heart of gold, gives the best hugs and loves her family dearly. There is never a dull moment with Addie around. She loves music, bike rides and helmets the most!

Getting the word out about Dup15q Syndrome is a key piece of the Alliance's mission. Together we can support the Dup15q Alliance in their mission to provide family support, promote awareness, research and targeted treatments for Addie and for those affected by Dup15q Syndrome. Just a small donation will go a long way in helping me meet my fundraising goal.

With only a few more weeks of training to go, I am starting to get very excited (and a little nervous) about the adventure that awaits in New York City. Thank you for your support along this journey of 26.2 for Dup15q. You are now part of Addie's Army!

With love,

Emily & Addie
