Cure Search Walk

The whole family took part in the Denver Cure Search Walk at Sloan's Lake this morning. I was there super early as a volunteer to help set up and Chad and the boys joined just before the walk kicked off. Charlie was honored with a medal for his bravery during his treatments and got to visit with fellow pediatric cancer survivors. This was the first year for the walk and hopefully next year we can form a team and try to raise money for the cause. This organization helps to fund the research study that Charlie is a part of. Chad and I both commented over lunch that it is difficult to participate in events like this because it brings those deeply buried emotions up to the surface. We tend to just deal with the day to day of this disease, but when you all gather together and hear the stories, good and bad, it can get pretty emotional.
