And We Liked It. by Christine Portillo http://charitychickshouston.com/we-ran-for-the-rose-again-and-we-liked-it/#comment-80 Christine Portillo Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:54:13 +0000 http://charitychickshouston.com/?p=917#comment-80 We DID like it! My fam (husband Raoul, daughter Elyse, son-in-law Collin, and young cousin Brittanie Portillo) were new to the Charity Chicks team this year, though my husband and I did the race back in 2010. We learned of it through my association with Chicks founder Jayme Lamm, who I supported in her Roadshow Blondes cross-country road trip benefiting awareness of suicide in the youth/college population. I'm happy to say that I surpassed my personal page's goal, and Brittanie was kind enough to donate generously on the Chicks page. I love everything about being associated with this crusade against brain cancer, a formidable foe but one we're gaining ground on. The Roses seem such gracious, generous, and compassionate people, and the run (okay, "the walk," in my case!) is a great way to get out and rub elbows with like-minded H-towners while breaking a little sweat! As the mother of a cancer survivor (first-time R4TR runner Elyse, a BCM medical student interested in pediatrics, lost an eye to the rare and lethal childhood cancer retinoblastoma at age 2.5), it's important to me to raise money, awareness, and knowledge about such dread diseases. We need to save children; we need to save lives! Look forward to walking next year. 'Til then, congrats to Charity Chicks, the Dr. Marnie Rose Foundation, and all other participants and supporters on another successful Run for the Rose. Marnie's life did mean something, and her memory will live on. Warmest regards, @christinglish We DID like it!
