2026 Falmouth Road Race

In January 2024, Roman was born into our lives, our perfect baby boy. His bilateral clubfeet were a surprise at birth that took us down a path we never before walked as parents. We are grateful to the incredible team that surrounded our family during his treatment those early months. Family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, physicians and physical therapists surrounded us with support, love and information. 

When Roman was born, we didn’t know all the ways God would use him in our lives, and over two years in we’re still watching the magic unfold every single day. In the last two years he has taught us to be more faithful, more grateful, to love harder, to not sweat the small stuff, the beauty in slowing down, and that with enough grit and positivity, anything is possible. There are no limits. 

We are running in the Falmouth Road Race this summer and raising funds for the Arc of the South Shore. The Arc, and most notably, Andrea Dewire, have been instrumental in Roman’s success. Today we are raising money for the Arc so that it can continue to help children across the South Shore of Massachusetts who, like Roman, might need a helping hand those first few years to get to where they are going. The sky is the limit. 

Love and gratitude always,

Erica & Phil Cushing
