Hi All,

Today's my son Bradley's two year post stem cell transplant anniversary. After a transplant, you literally count days afterwards, and Day +100, Day +365, and Day +730 are all significant milestones. At the two year mark, the rate of relapse for AML patients with a stem cell transplant drops significantly.

On a day of reflection for our family, it's important to me to reach out to thank people who were so supportive without even having met us. So many of you reached out on this board, DM'd me, supported us with donations, asked how you could help. None of that will ever be lost on me and my family, I'm thrilled to report Bradley is doing great today, and one day he'll probably be on this board fighting you guys and gals about how great the Bears 6 years consecutive Super Bowl victories are the greatest accomplishment in the history of sports

Sincere thank you from our family to all of you, and we wish you all happiness and good health to you and your families. Go MU!

Extremely happy for your son and your family. I recall some very dark days for you. You handled it all in a very dignified manner.

Great news for Bradley (Scoop's favorite Warrior), his family and the entire Marquette community! Thanks for reminding us of Bradley's milestone, Dish!

And we would be remiss not to call out his family who were both an inspiration and unsung heroes nursing him back to health. NMD starts with a huge win that matters.

There are more important things in life than winning championships.

I wish we could make it, but we're running a fundraiser on Sunday to celebrate this milestone, benefiting Ronald McD House and CureSearch, and my planning skills have me running around all day tomorrow to prep.

To anyone that has ever planned, coordinated, or run a fundraiser, tip of the cap to you (it's hard work!).

What are the details on the fundraiser? Nothing like free advertising on Scoop!

We're having a fundraiser at Epic Air Trampoline Park in South Elgin, IL (far west burbs), 6-8pm tonight. We wanted to do something kids would enjoy, not too expensive (it's $12 a kid to jump, parents are free). 100% net proceeds will be split between Ronald McD House and CureSearch (Epic Air charges us $7 a kid, so the extra $5 per kid will be split between the two charities).

Most of the raffle is geared towards people who live in Chicago (Sox tickets, Schwarber signed ball, Shaw's Crab House). I will say we got a very generous raffle (Chick-Fil-A for a year) donated by MU alum's who own/operate a Chick-Fil-A in Chicago. If you know who they are, they are fantastic people, and huge MU hoops fans.

If anyone is interested in the raffle, it's $2 a ticket, I have a full list of the items, you can email me direct at bgodish@gmail.com. If you make a donation to Ronald McDonald House (http://m.rmhccni.org/donate/) in honor of Bradley Godish, and then screen shot your donation, I'll then email back a picture of your raffle tickets. You'd have until 3pm today...because I have three kids and a wife who all of us will be running around stressed getting ready!

Thanks 83!
