A Message From Jeff Ting

Thanks for your support! Gilda's Club is a community organization for people with cancer, their families, and friends. Famous for its signature vibrant red doors, local Gilda's Club chapters offer support and networking groups, lectures, workshops and social events. I'm proud to be running for Gilda's Club Chicago this October and supporting their mission in delivering outreach and engagement with comprehensive cancer support services. In addition to supporting Team Gilda, I'm running to get back on my feet again and reclaim happier memories of Chicago when I go back. Even though someone may not always choose you in life, you can always choose yourself. "You're On Your Own, Kid" ♫♪♫♪♫♪ From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this I hosted parties and starved my body Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss The jokes weren't funny, I took the money My friends from home don't know what to say I looked around in a blood-soaked gown And I saw something they can't take away 'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned ~Everything you lose is a step you take~ So make the friendship bracelets Take the moment and taste it You've got no reason to be afraid You're on your own, kid Yeah, you can face this You're on your own, kid You always have been ♫♪♫♪♫♪
