Why I'm Riding the 2024 Pan Mass Challenge

My dad, Bruce P. Patten, was diagnosed with prostate cancer that eventually spread to his hip and ribs. To make things worse he developed frontotemporal dementia. Dad passed away on May 12, 2024. His favorite saying was "Carpe Diem" which is Latin for "Seize the Day." Make every day count as if it is your last. That saying resonated with me during my time in Afghanistan. My unit, the 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, lost 52 Soldiers. Since coming home many of our Soldiers have developed lung and brain cancer. Time spent in a combat zone changes your outlook on life. You learn quickly that life isn't about how hard you can hit, its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. We have one life to live and we can choose to use that life to make the world a better place. We can choose to be the best version of ourselves possible. I'm riding to make a difference in the fight against cancer. If you donate to the Boston Bruins Foundation you'll be making a difference. The Boston Bruins Foundation is a proud supporter of the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and the Pan Mass Challenge. Be a leader. Lead from the front. Lean forward and donate now. I deeply appreciate your love and support. Together we can change the world.
