"The Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation is celebrating its’ 15th anniversary this year, with a focus on three key words: CRYSTAL / CLEAR / HOPE. In conjunction with the anniversary, I’m planning a 15,000 mile Journey of Hope; a road trip up, down and across the 48 contiguous United States. I intend to honor the memory of my daughter, Sarah, who passed away from cholangiocarcinoma in 2018. Sarah, would have loved to do this trip with me!"
- Dave Fleischer
Dates of the trip: May 20th - June 30th

Journey of Hope: Day 24
My scheduled visit today, was at the home of Heidi Garringer Rhea (warrior) in Mandeville, LA.
Journey of Hope: Day 23
Anyone know where the tallest cast iron statue in the U.S. is located, and what its’ name is? As I approached my first meeting location of the day, in Birmingham, AL, I observed a significant statue on a pedestal on a high point in the city.
Journey of Hope: Day 22
Have you ever had one of those days when you realize how finely tuned our lives are? That is until a few minor quirks get in the way. Today was one of those days for me.
Journey of Hope: Day 21
As it’s the 15th anniversary of the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation, many people now know that I’ve incorporated the number 15 into my journey in a variety of ways.
Journey of Hope: Day 20
Another day of amazing moments, and a great way to mark the halfway point on the Journey, at least for # of states visited.
Journey of Hope: Day 19
In driving terms, today’s schedule was a short one, as I was in the car for less than two hours.
Journey of Hope: Day 18
To date, the Journey of Hope has been memorable in many ways that will be with me forever. Today, however, was a milestone event that rises to the top.
Journey of Hope: Day 17
After a two-minute visit to the beach for a quick photo of the Atlantic Ocean, I left Ogunquit, ME @ 6:30 a.m., and headed two hours south to Holliston, MA, and the home of Kim Balkus.
Journey of Hope: Day 16
Today was to be a day of rest, including a walk on the beach, here in Maine. Hah! Never happened.
