This is the Busy Season
After an unexpected stay in the hospital for a few days last week, I was back on the road. Thank you NYU for allowing me to introduce new Greek Life members to Andrew’s story and the mission of The Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation. It was a real thrill yesterday visiting the building that was my junior high school. I meet with student leaders from three area high schools - Mt. Pleasant (my alma mater), Brandywine, and Concord. All three schools are joining together to raise money and awareness for The B+ Foundation. I’m very touched. This is really special to me.
And, tonight, one of my favorite events of the year —- the Wilmington Classic! The Wilmington Classic pits the Wilmington Fire Dept against the Wilmington Police Dept in an epic ice hockey game. It’s always sold out and always a blast. We will have 3-4 B+ Heroes on the ice tonight for the ceremonial puck drop.

“I want to thank BE POSITIVE for their generous financial support they have provided our family during our daughter’s bone cancer treatment. Kiley spends most weeks inpatient at the hospital thats 1.5hours away to receive chemotherapy treatment, unfortunately I had to leave my job as a pediatric nurse to care for her and her two sisters. I don’t have much extra time and so we found this organization to be very helpful even more so due to the easy process of getting help.We are also so thankful for the words of encouragement received from BE POSITIVE.”
Please read Kiley’s “About Me” …she will make a GREAT nurse someday!!!

What kid doesn’t love garbage trucks!!! :)
On a very personal note, I would like to salute my brave and beautiful wife. This week, we celebrated a healthy 10 years out from her breast cancer diagnosis. Chris is the rock of our family, battled tough, and we’re so blessed that she’s still here with us. We love you, Chris!
Make it a great weekend.
