Walking Tall

Pretty much a normal Tuesday here in our family. Nice to see the sun come out and the sky all blue. Carol is dealing with the side-effects of her chemo treatments as best as she can. She has a nice distraction going on right now.
We're going for a walk this Saturday as a family. Our nephew Jake has coordinated a team named; "We Love Carol" and is comprised of friends and family. It's the Susan G. Komen Walk For The Cure! We are getting excited about it, and hope the weather will be nice. She took the dogs on two walks today and is now "dog tired" sorry... just had to say it. She passed out about an hour ago and I'm on my way to visit Mr. Sandman myself.
Both of our daughters are walking as well and I'm it will bring new meaning to helping their mother get well. It is my prayer that they will see all the survivors, and see all of the family members band together in a march motivated by love, hope, and the fighting spirit that makes us become one to conquer such a life changing disease. Yes, you guessed it... I'm excited too!
Until we walk, we're going to keep practicing by taking trips around the hood, and getting our bodies and spirits in shape. Wish us luck, and a prayer wouldn't hurt as well. I'm praying Carol's 4th treatment goes so well she'll be more than ready to make the walk with a big ol' Carol smile on her face! - Eric
