I'm Riding For

Daina Wheeler & Debbie Ford

We lost my stepdaughter Daina to cancer when she was only in her 20’s…. In 2025 my oldest sister Debbie lost her cancer battle after an exhausting fight. My baby sister is a survivor. Cancer SUCKS. I ride in memory of Debbie, and Daina, who cancer cheated out of getting married, having children, growing old. But also for all cancer survivors & fighters, as well every child ever with that life threatening diagnosis and their parents. Please support this incredibly worthwhile cause. Thank you all very much.

My Story

7 Jul 2026

This September, I am for the 7th year taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! I’m riding in memory of my stepdaughter Daina. But I’m also riding in memory of my oldest sister Deb who lost her cancer fight in February 2025, and in honor of my baby sister who is a survivor. But I also ride for every single child with cancer and the parents that love those babies.

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week. Cancer SUCKS.

KIDS SHOULD BE LIVING LIFE NOT FIGHTING FOR IT!

I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives. And possibly someone you love.

Thank you.
