In light of finding out that Nora has been diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome, we've decided to take a look at some of the little information that is out there about Turner's. Upon visiting the Turner's Syndrome Society of the United States webpage (http://www.turnersyndrome.org/) I discovered that there are walks all over the country that aim to raise awareness and funds for those with Turner's.
I've learned some pretty cool stuff.
The Children's Hospital of Denver is planning to open a TS clinic in early 2015! How cool is that? So, there is a TS Awareness walk in Littleton NEXT Sunday, September 21 which is aiming to raise $25,000 more to go towards that clinic. What are the chances that right now is the annual walk for TS? Coincidence? I think not.
I've chosen to start a team and walk next Saturday for Ms. Nora. Since I only found out about this walk with six days until show time I've started small with a goal of raising $100. We'd love your support in helping us meet our goal and helping girls that have Turner's Syndrome all over the state of Colorado!
You can also walk with us if you'd like to! The walk is free, and if you choose to walk, I imagine we'll wear something matchy-matchy like PINK. ;) (I know that is sooo strange for me, I don't even think I own a pink shirt..)
All of this can be done from this website: http://www.firstgiving.com/team/277256. We are Team Nora.
Thank you so very much for all of your support!
