At MD Anderson, 3 clinical trials have resulted directly from your contributions. Your funding of cutting-edge research and personalized therapy has enabled many brain tumor patients to live 5-6 years and more without recurrence and with a great quality of life. Your support of new drug development expedites the delivery of these drugs from the lab to the patient. The Dr. Marnie Rose Foundation is the only Houston foundation funding adult brain cancer research at MD Anderson.

Your funds continue to benefit the brave young patients who meant so much to our precious Marnie. At Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital, in an exciting collaboration among UTHealth Medical School, Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, and MD Anderson, your funds are pioneering amazing new research to treat pediatric brain tumors.

None of this would have been possible without your generosity! The Dr. Marnie Rose Foundation now has given $2,471,000.00 to our two hospitals in just 9 years.

Emily Brandenberger will be teaching this fun new class!
Emily is former Division I Water Polo player who after leaving water polo in college spent the next years floating around looking to fulfill her competitive nature through fitness once again.  After many years in the globo gyms, pilates programs, spinning and even the Afro-Brazilian martial art of Capoeira, Emily’s husband Billy was introduced to CrossFit shortly after the birth of their first child and after several months of poking she finally decided to check it out.  Even though she had considered herself to have been in great shape before baby she was still shy about trying out CrossFit not knowing what her fitness level was going to be like 9 months after having a baby with much time having been spent on bed rest before the birth and c-section recovery afterwards.  After taking the first step and doing her introduction class one-on-one she was instantly in love with CrossFit and continued to do the remainder of her basic classes all one-on-one.  After making the leap to the “big class” there has been no looking back.  She became CrossFit Level 1 certified in September 2011, continues to push herself and is currently CrossFitting with Baby #2 on the way, due April 2012.
