If you listen to the Getup Crew on Hot 96.9, chances are, you know Nicole Torres’ story. Nicole is preparing to run her third Boston marathon today and for her it’s not just any run. We’ll let you learn about Nicole’s story in her own words:
“My reason for raising money for this incredible cause has everything to do with the toughest fighter that I know: Sandie Rossini. Sandie is my husband’s ex-wife and mother to their two daughters, Lili and Calla. Since first being introduced to Sandie, I have been blown away by her story, her courage, and her continued will to live despite the circumstances that she has to face every single day. Sandie is continuing to courageously battle brain cancer with the help of Beth Israel and I truly believe in my heart that Sandie has continued to stay so strong throughout her battle because of the efforts made by everyone at Beth Israel. The nurses, doctors, support staff, and everyone who works tirelessly in any capacity at the hospital is an aide in this woman’s incredible war against a disease that will not win.
In 2018, I ran the Boston Marathon in her honor as well and through the efforts of amazing family and friends, we were able to surpass my goal of raising $10,000 for this incredible hospital. Because Sandie is continuing to fight for herself and her family, I am continuing to run for her.
My entire family thanks you in advance for supporting Beth Israel and helping Sandie!”
