Why I Ride - Sean Avery bit.ly/1kDIgCA Im riding in the 25th Courage Classic for kids like Raphael, my nephew. Rapha is now a rambunctious, happy 5-year-old, but at birth, he faced a host of serious complications that sometimes arise with Down syndrome, as well as a life-threatening systemic infection. He was flown from Boulder Community to Childrens, where he went into the neonatal ICU and spent the next several weeks receiving world-class, round-the-clock care. In the weeks, months, and years since, through diagnostic services, surgeries and therapies, Childrens has continued to support Raphas journey from the roughest start imaginable to thriving, ordinary boyhood. Rapha will not be the last child to face a life-threatening illness, and his family will not be the last to navigate a frightening diagnosis. The Courage Classic is both a personal challenge and an opportunity to support positive outcomes for kids and families who need Childrens Colorado
