What a inspiring and wonderful account of our experience! It made me cry and made me re-live the amazing moments of our journey. I am so glad I had the opportunity to get to know you, Pat and the Jersey girls! The walk is something I’ll never forget – the memories are absolutely priceless. There was a job to do and by golly we did it! Because we could…

I stumbled onto your blog through the superhero site…and have been checking in regularly ever since.
THANK YOU !!! Our family does the Relay for Life event every year – my father-in-law had a bone marrow transplant 6/99 for Leukemia and has had to fight the fight again this year with stage 3 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He has 2 chemo treatments to go and a pretty much clean bill of health from his docs. For me, I have a very direct reason for donating my time to these events.
But I know what you mean about all of a sudden realizing WHY you do something like this. It’s amazing how much a stranger’s story can touch and affect you.
I will always donate in any way I can…be it money, time, or by walking. In fact, my mother-in-law, my husband and I all go to the Red Cross every 56 days and donate blood as a group (aside from when I have been pregnant).
Thank you again…not only for generously giving up your time, but because you now have inspired others to follow in your “footsteps”.

Thank you for so wonderfully putting my emotions into words. I’m a survivor who walked in Philly six weeks ago and STILL can’t get all those amazing little moments out of my mind. The 3-Day is definitely an experience that is hard to adequately describe to someone not involved — yet we all keep trying to do so because it means so much to us.

What a heartfelt experience, I felt very humbled by the commitment that these people made to walk all those miles in support of breast cancer.
I salute all of you
