“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to urge south Floridians to run or walk this Sunday, November 1, to support the Cristina M. Gomez Traumatic Brain Injury Foundation--TBI Foundation--at its first annual Cristina Gomez 5K Run/Walk at Miami Executive Airport. Cristina was a senior majoring in education at my alma mater, Florida International University, when she suffered a traumatic brain injury after falling while out on a run. While her family is encouraged by Cristina's slow, but steady, recovery, she still requires 24/7 care, and her continuing treatment is not fully covered by insurance, concerns that they share with many other families. As a result, proceeds from Sunday's event will help ensure that other traumatic brain injury victims and their families in our community receive the emotional and the financial support they need to keep hope alive. Registration is online now at cristinagomezfoundation.org. ____________________”
