Shul member Ellen Wiederlight was featured with Jill Schroeder in an article in the March 16 issue of the Suffolk Times. The article pointed out that Jill Schroeder, a personal trainer, was preparing to run a half-marathon and raise $5,000 for lung cancer research, which her client, Ellen Wiederlight, has been battling for eight years.
In addition to training with Jill Schroeder twice a week, Ellen Wiederlight will participate in an experimental antibody medical trial at Boston’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The procedure there binds receptors on specific types of cells and is linked to a drug that attacks cancer cells without harming healthy cells, the newspaper said.
