Here is a little background about Shannon and her battle with leukemia.
At the age of eight, Shannon Johnson received the heartbreaking diagnosis of leukemia. Following many months of cancer treatments and extended hospital stays, Shannon went into remission. The good news was short lived however when just two years later she relapsed. This time Shannon would need chemo, total body radiation, and a bone marrow transplant. She is once again in remission! The hearta...che, stress and financial obligations have been a tremendous burden to her family. A year later, Shannon is still happily in remission but will need continued medical care for years to come. Because of this, family and friends of Shannon have come together to hold a fundraising event. This fundraiser will include a 5K race, live and silent auctions, a pancake breakfast, a kid’s corner and more!
I will post more information as the event gets closer. Here is her Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Team-Shannon/158698660873077?sk=wall
