Honored Teammates

This page is dedicated to some very special people and their families. Each has shown great courage in dealing with cancer. They are honored teammates in the Team-in-Training run for the cause!

Name: Victoria Ero

Birthday: September 24, 1992
Status: In complete remission!
Diagnosis: Hodgkin's lymphoma - February 2003
Family: Lauren (Mom), Jeff (Dad) and Cameron (brother 15)
Interests: Irish step dancing, shopping and computers
Victoria's friends and family have been a great source of support. Lauren's employer the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association welcomed Victoria while she was in treatment. They gave her a desk and computer to use and a huge basket of toys for whenever she visited. There are many cancer survivors at ASHA and they always made Victoria feel special. When she lost her hair it was the only place she felt comfortable not wearing a wig or scarves. Victoria is also continually inspired by the loving staff at Johns Hopkins Pediatric Oncology Center, particularly her nurse, Colleen and oncologist, Michelle Hudspeth. She actually enjoys going to visit and loves the attention and joyful celebration of her continued remission.
