Kimber, Becky, Elaine, Cyndie, Maxine & Misti
We joined the walk because of Cyndie. She has two daughters with MS, and each one of us know at least one other person who has MS! We've already decided that next year we're going to walk as a team, as this year we just signed up individually.
We had a great day for walking, it's just beautiful here. We also had a good time visiting, as social time with us all here is pretty limited!
ADDITIONALLY, THANK YOU FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DONATED IN MY NAME! Your contribution was appreciated!
Look at you guys. And it looks like you had great weather for it, too. Yay.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great cause! I like to do walks like these too but all of them are on Sunday here.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great time!

That would be fun--all walking together! Sometime I'd like to do that around here. I've got a friend at work that is doing a 60 mile, 3 day walk this fall.
ReplyDeleteHi Maxine,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your note on our blog. It was fun to read some of yours. My husband's father was born in Scottsbluff, NE but moved to Washington state when he was a child. Also, the elder and his wife where I went to Sun. AM mtg growing up were from the Scottsbluff area so we do have a couple of NE connections. It's fun to connect with our friends around the country through blogs.

Dear Maxine.
ReplyDeleteI could hardly catch my breath when I saw the Walk Photos and read your notes. Thank you my friend.... You have NO idea what it meant to have you and your friends walking to help ME, and so many more like me. We don't have them anywhere near here. Maybe if I feel up to it next year I could join you in my wheelchair. I have to use it on walks or when I shop. I cannot imagaine what it is like for Cyndie to have TWO daughters with this MonSter. It is such an unpredictalbe disease. We are lucky that the past ten years have given us some HOPE to slow down the progression with several types of injections I am on Rebif, three times per week shot, but Darrol and I are planning a nose to nose talk with my neuro. I have had a relapse every month since my May dx. We want to discuss our options, as I lose more skills each time I relapse. Well, anyways, please give my love and hugs to all your friends for me.
Love ya so much, Debbie
good cause and it looks like you had a great time helping out as well!
ReplyDeleteWow! How awesome of you guys to do this. You don't know me or my family but you know my sister Lorinda. My husband was just diagnosed with ms on Thursday this past week. He is 29 years old and so we hope someday for a cure, but in the meantime are thankful that we live in a day when they are doing so much to learn more about this disease. Thanks for your part in making a difference. Maria
