Maryanne Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 The walk went great!! We couldn't ask for better weather, in the low 70's. Heather did one heck of an incredible job of getting this together I am sure she will update us as for as the amount of people there, money raised etc. Ginny sent Katie a picture of Kathy (Harn), who is also a member here. She was on Heather’s committee and along with her husband, was giving out water, fruit and pretzels at the half way point. Also, I am soooooo proud of Joel. He walked the 5 miles. Could you believe it?? He hasn't really walked far since his operation last year. I thought he would only do the 1 mile, but no he walk the whole trail. I can't wait to hear from Heather how much money was raised. There was a booth set up of LCSC with lots of information about our support group. I raised over $800.00 in pledges...Not bad for not having an office to help contribute. just relatives and friends. Some gave $5.00 a mile, some gave $10.00. This was my first walk, and I will definitely get involved next year to help out. Pic of us girls; left to right- Ginny De, Heather, Gail and little (really little) ole me. Other pic, Joel with thumbs up after walk. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazy Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Wow...how inspiring!!! Congrats to all on a job well done!! Heather, I think it's amazing that you find the time and energy to pull it all off. And Joel...what can I say...What a hero!! (altho' I believe, Maryanne, that you are as much a part of that success as Joel - you give him the strength ) Now, time for a foot soak/massage, a good book, and a cool drink! Congratulations!

Kasey Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Thanks for doing what you did for all of us struggling with the dx of LC, Maryanne. I, for one, appreciate it so much. I am so disappointed not to have been able to be there to meet you guys. Walking 5 miles sounds a WHOLE lot easier than babysitting 2 grandsons for the weekend ! Your new pic is awesome. You both look so different than in the last one! You look like a honeymooning couple in their 30's ! Thanks again to all of you in NJ! Love, Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
