Hi Friends and Family,

This year I have decided to participate in the BAA 10K with the cath lab team. While many may not think a 10K is much and that may be true, it is not about the distance but the message. The people (from doctors to techs to nurses to environmental services to everyone in between) have been there for me and helped make me who I am as a physician after 5 years of training at BWH. Before I leave and start a journey of my own with my family, I want to honor this institution and all those who have helped me get here. All donations from my fundraising page will be donated to the Michael Davidson Fund. Dr. Davidson was a cardiac surgeon who helped revolutionize the crossover between cardiology and cardiac surgery. His goal was to bring new and less invasive technology to the forefront of patient care. As many of you know, my current year at BWH is specializing in these procedures. Unfortunately, due to terrible circumstances, Dr. Davidson is no longer with us but his name, his skills and his passion remain omnipresent at BWH and I look forward to honoring him and the whole hospital at this run.

Thank you for your consideration and contribution!

Ryan
