Synopsis "Carrying a Flag From Pain to Passion"
When Andrew Buerger's sister was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer, her courage and strength spurred Andy to turn pain into a passion. Andy founded Jodi's Climb for Hope, which raised more than $750,000 for research by leading mountain-climbing expeditions-an apt metaphor for the struggles women affected by breast cancer endure.
