I'm sorry it's taken me so long to reply, it's been a busy month in my household.
The walk I am working on is taking shape quite nicely, I'm excited. The Eastern Virginia Medical School has taken an interest in the walk and will be offering it's media sources/assistance. Doctors are lined up already to do free oral screenings. I am 99% sure that I have my first "big" sponsor, a very wealthy local man that my husband met who is a cancer survivor. Brian is guiding me with everything so it's bound to be a success. Lot's of OCF members want to come so I'm hoping it will also serve as a sequel to the Las Vegas trip that I missed.
With Christmas over I can get back to focusing on this event and I'll keep everyone posted.
