Clinical Resource: Success Story: Debby Linton Ferguson

Exercise is a must for longtime marathoner and mom, Debby Linton Ferguson. On May 4, Debby will be striding for a deeply personal cause – a cure for cancer at the 4th Annual Be A Part of the Cure Walk to benefit the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute. Cancer has hit Debby’s family hard. Her father, mother and grandmother all battled the disease, and Debby is currently battling a recurrence of breast cancer. But thanks to the expert care they received at UAMS Health, Debby’s dad enjoyed 30 precious cancer-free years, and her mother continues to enjoy an active and cancer-free life.

“My family received decades of bonus time together thanks to the excellent care provided at the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute. We naturally feel driven to do something to give back to those who have given us so much. The Be A Part of the Cure Walk is a fun and healthy way we can all support Arkansas’ cancer center in finding a cure. I hope you will join us on May 4.”

– Debby Linton Ferguson, Be A Part of the Cure Walk Volunteer
