 \nDonations accepted online now through the event date of October 6th &a
 mp\; 7th.&nbsp\;\nDr. Edlin's Rider Profile (October 2011):\nIt is hard 
 to believe that it was only one year ago when a few friends of ours aske
 d Leisa and me to join them in the inaugural PEDAL THE CAUSE ride for ca
 ncer.The night before the ride\, I vividly remember listening to all the
  speeches given by administrators\, doctors\, patients\, and parents of 
 children afflicted by one form or another of CANCER.As I looked around t
 he tent\, I couldn't believe how lucky and far removed I felt from all o
 f them.I thought to myself: Glad it's not me speaking at that podium.As 
 if that would ever happen to me!No way\, not me! Well\, WHY NOT ME!!!Les
 s than one month later\, my beautiful wife Leisa was diagnosed with stag
 e four\, Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.At our first appointment at The Siteman 
 Cancer Center\, a very nice lady asked Leisa and me if we would like a t
 our of the facility?&nbsp\; No thanks we said\, we are just here for a q
 uick visit. We won't need to know where all the amenities are located si
 nce we will only be here this one time?.After all\, this can't be real\,
  it must be a mistake?It was at that moment that Leisa and I looked at e
 ach other and knew that this was real!Welcome to the show!Despite the di
 agnosis of cancer\, Leisa's strength never wavered.I watched as she hand
 led exhausting treatments of chemo with courage\, grace\, and dignity.Th
 anks to new cancer drugs and her doctors at The Siteman Center\, Leisa i
 s now in remission.Leisa and I are now at the podium and while we get to
  speak\, our goal is to help find a cure so no one else has to step up t
 o that podium.Won't you please join me and support: PEDAL THE CAUSEIts m
 ission is to provide funding for cancer research at Siteman and St.Louis
  Children's Hospital.Every cent raised stays in St. Louis and 100% of wh
 at is donated goes towards research.Please help me in this journey to fi
 nd new treatments and cures for all cancers by donating to my ride.I hop
 e you will join me in this grass-roots effort to advance research and fi
 nd a cure.Thank you for your generous support! Michael and Leisa Edlin
