In this journey of fighting Lyme Disease I am always amazed at the compassionate and kind support from those that choose to "step into" this journey that my family is on. Sometimes this is a close friend or family member but many times these people have no prior relationship with me personally and have chosen to "get involved" in one way or another. This is definitely the case with the company that my sister works for. Last year for Rebecca's Run several of her co-workers and her boss donated financially to the run without ever having met me. This year this company has gone WAY beyond last years amazing support and will be donating the t-shirts and is also taking the time to advertise and support the run. A "thank you" from far away could never begin to express my humble and speechless gratitude for ALL of the people that have been supportive on this journey but please know that every act of kindness- big or small touches me and my hurting family.
Sport Seasons has written a blog post about the run which you can find HERE.
Thank you so much to every person who continues to support me on this journey- your friendships and love are such a blessing!

Wow!!! What a blessing to be surrounded by so many people both emotionally and physically invested in your journey!
ReplyDeleteThe Lord has truly been good in blessing my family and I with so many wonderful people to walk this journey with us. It is definitely hard as a person dealing with a chronic illness because there are large numbers of people who you think are dear and close friends that walk away from the journey for a myraid of reasons. BUT I have found with keeping my focus on the Lord I am drawn to see all of the blessings instead of the losses! Just one small way that the Lord shows redemption and restoration on this journey in my mind!
