Friend’s battle with cancer inspires rollerblader’s journey across Canada
May 31st, 2007
When close friend Adam Reid was diagnosed with both lung and throat cancer, Richard Ralph was shocked.
How could Reid, just 26 years of age, physically active and a non-smoker, contract not just one serious type of cancer but two?
Ralph, who’s 27, began to think about what he could do. What he decided after considering his options was to rollerblade across Canada, telling his story and gathering contributions.
