Claire’s Mother, melissa yeager, is embarking on a grand canyon adventure
One of Claire’s most powerful messages was, "Go live your life because there are people fighting like hell for theirs." So that’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I've started training with two of my close friends, and this April, we’re taking on a 6-day, 5-night, 32 mile Grand Canyon hike with TSX called "Thunder River." I’m doing this to raise money for the foundation Claire started at just 13 years old and to reconnect with the beauty of life. I’ll also be carrying some of her ashes with me, waiting for the right moment - the right place - to leave a part of her in a world she didn’t get nearly enough time to explore.
This is my way of honoring Claire and everyone we’ve lost to this disease. Life is precious, and I never want to take it for granted. I’m stepping into nature, pushing myself, and hoping to find new inspiration along the way.
Will you help me reach my goal? Every penny counts. 💜 Donate HERE
