Description
Milo's Run 2023 is our 3rd annual run in honor of our Grandson, Christopher Milo Moore. In 2021 our son & daughter in law; Christopher & Nahomi Moore, were transported to DCH with Milo, where he was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer, a rhabdoid tumor; only about 50 children get diagnosed worldwide each year. He fought like a superhero for 3 months and 23 days. On September 23rd, surrounded by family at 6 months & 23 days old and with a smile on his face, he got his healing in Heaven. We run this race in memory of our #mightymilo.
We met many courageous families fighting a similar cancer diagnosis during this time. Milo's Run is to establish a fund through LIVINGWAY CARES, a non-profit 501C3, to help families of South Texas with a monetary gift to offset some of the huge expenses they have as they go through this process.
Last year's run raised over $30,000 and has blessed numerous RGV families throughout their journey with gas money, housing, food gift cards, etc. These families have become close & dear to our hearts. This year a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Children's Bereavement Center, which will aid multiple families in the Rio Grande Valley.
We desire this event to benefit more families and raise awareness in the community of pediatric cancer. Although Milo is no longer with us, we know he is rejoicing and is cancer free, looking down on us & smiling with pride for all this run has accomplished.
