Cheryl Perry, Kitchener, On

Cheryl Perry, Kitchener, On

I would like to nominate Cheryl Perry for this award. Cheryl lost her son 5 years ago to Testicular Cancer. Her son Adam lived 7 short months after he was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer. A year after Adam's death Cheryl decided to fulfill her son Adam's dream to educate all young men about this type of Cancer. Cheryl now has a non profit organization called "The Canadian Testicular Cancer Association" (www.tctca.org). She devotes her days at schools - educating men, having fundraisers, sending out pamphlets, etc. She has recently received a letter from a young gentleman who wanted to thank her. He said that if he had never seen the pamphlets, that he would have never known about Testicular Cancer. (He was diagnosed with cancer a few short days after reading the pamphlets). She is a true hero in my eyes. She does it so no man or family will have to go through what she has gone through with her son. For that, Cheryl Perry is a true hero.   Submitted By: valerie
