A year ago today:

Just a few days until we do it all over again…

It’s been a little over a week since my last trip to urgent care, and since I got the bill for it in the mail yesterday, I figured I’d share an update. And also ask if my hospital bill can be considered a tax write off since the reason I was in the hospital was [...]

It’s a few days after the fact, so I’ve had time to just about fully process it all. I think it’s fair to say that I won’t ever completely process it, because it’s such a magnificent time of my life, so this is as close as it gets. It will probably get long and detailed [...]

Just for good measure, I decided to head into urgent care one more time before they closed tonight. Because the doctor couldn’t touch my foot and send me writhing in pain like I do when I walk, he just gave me a walking cast and a prescription to Vicodin. He also gave me orders to [...]

I was going to post all my pictures from the walk and write all about it, except I’m having some memory card issues that I’m not competent enough to figure out right now, because the thought of losing those pictures makes me want to cry.
However, I can share my morning’s activities with you. It involved [...]

It’s early and I’m not really awake yet. But in 30 minutes, I’ll be on my way to Opening Ceremonies of The 3 Day.
Thank you so much to everyone for all of your donations and terrific support!
I’ll be back on Sunday with billions of pictures and stories, I’m sure.

The 3 Day is tomorrow. Twenty-four hours from now, I’ll be walking in a sea of thousands that have all dedicated their time and energy in raising money for breast cancer. I’ll probably hug them all.
I could write paragraph upon paragraph about how much the walk means to me and how important of a fixture [...]

The 3 Day is next weekend. Yeah, I know. It’s soon!

The 3 Day Walk is August 18-20. I may not have mentioned that for a while!
They’ve set up something new this year, which involves walkers being able to receive mail while at camp each night. So, you can write me a letter! It doesn’t matter if you have or haven’t donated, a letter would still [...]
