My amazing aunt, Ellen De La Cruz, is preparing to swim across the English Channel to raise awareness for Parkinson's disease.

Friday the 13th is a superstition that the 13th day of a month falling on a Friday is considered to be unlucky. The origins of this superstition are unclear, but the number 13 is considered unlucky in many cultures, which may have contributed to the superstition. The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia. Try saying those three times fast (or even at all haha)!
