Daytime Radness @ Island Water Sports, Deerfield Beach
October 18, 2013 @ 6:00 am - 9:00 pm
This all day event will be held to benefit local BSO officer Ben Koos and his wife Carolyne. Carolyne, a survivor of Systematic Lupus, gave birth to two sons, Jack and Christian, but Christian would only live to be 2 years old due to a rare neurological disease called Leukodystrophy. After his death, Carolyne and Ben started their own nonprofit charity called Embrace Life Children’s Foundation to help children with chronic and terminal illnesses. After starting their charity Carolyne was diagnosed with Dysautonomia and Sjogren’s Syndrome. Carolyne is currently seeking assistance to attend the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota for specialized medical treatment.
