When Jarrod Russell saw Braxton Weidman’s story, it touched his heart. Having been affected by brain cancer himself as a child, Jarrod saw Braxy’s story in his own. Limited in what athletic activities he could perform, a few years ago, Jarrod found a passion for cycling through the Great Cycle Challenge Canada. He took his passion for cycling and coupled it with his personal desire to help children fighting cancer, raising well over $100,000.
Although nearly 2,200 miles and a border separate them, the childhood cancer battle has Jarrod, who is from Lloydminster, Alberta, Canada, and Braxy, who is from Oak Mountain, Alabama, U.S.A., fighting side by side.
On today's show, I have Jarrod, along with his sister, Lana, sharing his own story along with his fundraising efforts for Braxy and all children who are battling cancer. Today's show is dedicated to Sara Beth Middlebrooks who passed away yesterday after her battle with childhood cancer.
