To conquer a marathon is quite a task, but it is nothing in comparison to what the families of CDH patients go through everyday.  It was truly an honor and a blessing to be asked to run in support of CDH awareness and represent The Parker Reese Foundation.  As a runner who has participated in many events, I know that running the NYC Marathon will be my greatest event yet.  However, getting to be involved with the Parker Reese Foundation and the wonderful people behind it, will surely make this my most memorable event yet.  I can't wait to use these 26.2 miles (and hundreds of miles of training)  to help spread the word and build awareness of a cause that needs our attention!  See you at the finish line..."

Luis A. Ramirez NYC Marathon 2009













The primary reason Luis is running this marathon is for his daughter, Isabela, which is a CDH survivor - and all who have gone through a similar road. You see, every day he realizes that all the pain she endured throughout her six months in the hospital proves that (as the Marines say) pain is weakness leaving the body. Now that she is two years old, Luis has seen how 'determination' in his daughters eyes may lead the body to where their heart is. This is why Luis will complete this marathon with a smile!  Just like this picture taken before the 2009 NYC Marathon.  Luis is determined to run this marathon for Global CDH and all other organizations that are assisting to make this event a success. 

Thus far in training for this marathon...Luis has completed a marathon in Boston and in New Jersey.  He has also completed the Turkey Swamp 50K, attempted the Green Lakes Endurance Run of 100K (only reached mile 48) at the end of August, and successfully completed Virgil Crest Ultra 50 mile.  

"These races are nothing compared to what these babies experience - Luis."

I live in the beautiful state of Vermont. I am running as a member of this team to support my coworker, Tiffanie, whose beautiful daughter is a CDH survivor. I see the daily struggles that Tiffanie faces as she struggles to deal with the on-going doctor’s visits, health concerns, etc. and admire the fortitude and strength of her family. She does what she has to do each and every day. My sister-in-law’s niece is also a CDH survivor. I have heard much about their struggles as well and know that it has not been an easy road for them either. As the father of four children myself I cannot imagine having to combat such an issue and look forward to the opportunity to support all children and their families whose lives are impacted by CDH.

A little about me ~ I am an advocate for CDH after my twin nephews were born.  Will & Michael Joseph were born July 25, 2009.  Will is a healthy boy while MJ was diagnosed with CDH & lived for 35 wonderful days.

I am doing this marathon to make a difference in these innocent babies' lives.  This is for them and their fight the courage they have each day to go on.

Although God had another plan for MJ and our family he is looking down upon us and smiling.

Proud to be your Auntie love & miss you always!

I am the father of CDH survivor Nayeli Nelson.  I pray that one day, through medical research, our medical professionals will find ways to better battle this deadly birth defect.  I use this race, my first marathon ever, to run for my daughter, Luis's daughter, every other CDH survivor, as well as for the CDH angels above us with God who lost their battle.  The strength of the CDH angels above and the fight the CDH survivors display before our eyes each day, will motivate me throughout this run, and my training enroute to the day of the run!
