2008 Phoenix Arthritis Walk

(Sorry I haven't been blogging as much, but for some reason I can't pick up WiFi at home, so my internet access right now is very intermittent).

These year Phil and I are going to be participating in the 2008 Phoenix Arthritis Walk on May 3rd, at the Phoenix Zoo. Thousands of people across the nation are joining together this Spring in a quest for a cure. The Arthritis Walk will be led by inspirational men, women and children who have arthritis. They'll be leading the way wearing special blue honoree hats to show that they are taking control of their arthritis.

I have had Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis since I was two. It has been something that has changed my life in so many ways. There have been so many struggles and medicines and therapies I have been apart of over the years, and it seems each year my arthritis has gotten more and more debiliating, to the point where I have been unable to walk for the past three years and now use a powerchair. Through it all though I have always kept a positive attidude and am so glad for the opprotunity to be able to give back to the Arthritis Foundation and raise money for new medicines, and hopefully, a cure.

Phil and I have started a team called "Kimbo's Commando's". We would love to get more people to join our team and walk with us. The walk in one-mile around the Phoenix Zoo, and will be a fun -filled day of fun, food, festivites, health information, and the best...a free day at the zoo!!

If you would like to join our team, please follow the link at the bottom of this blog and click on Join Our Team. You can also email me for more information.

If you are not able to walk, but wish to donate to our cause, you can click on the website and donate. We are trying to raise at least $100.

Thank you so much for your support!!
