I was very happy to attend the Cleveland walk, soggy though it was! Got to talk with my virtual friends ChristineB and SueZ in person. Congrats to Christine on a moving and effective speech, and to SueZ on her fund raising skills.
If you are thinking of attending one of there walks, and are afraid that it would be too emotionally or physically taxing - I think I can put your mind at ease. There is a feeling of support and energy and hope for the future - and if you can't do the walk, or the whole walk (like me) there will be place for you I am sure.
Thanks to the wonderful Dental Hygienist's Association of Cleveland for sponsering the walk.
