aromatherapy Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 I will be participating in the upcoming Toronto Super Cities Walk for MS and am looking for pledges to help me out. This is a fundraiser that is very personal for me as I was diagnosed a year ago in April. There is little known about this disease and the more steps we can take to finding a cure, the better. If you would like to make a donation you can always give me a few bucks if I see you out and about or you can pledge online (if this link doesn't take you to my donations page you can search for a specific walker from the main page - Heidi Bryden). I've got up to four weeks after the walk (April 17th) to collect donations too Remember... you can get tax receipts for donations over $15 :: Thanks guys!

C'mon skanks, match our donation!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aromatherapy Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 Thanks Cowboy! It was great to finally meet you last night after hearling so many good things about you. Glad to know they're all true I would definitely be interested in hearing more about your mother sometime too. It really is amazing how many people we actually know living with MS that we have no idea about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchoulia Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I am also doing this walk...one of my best friends is living with MS. So feel free to sponsor me, too, if you can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aromatherapy Posted March 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 That's sweet Maybe we can walk together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchoulia Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 That's sweet Maybe we can walk together! Sounds good! I just hit up a bunch of co-workers and they're being very generous. Yay! :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaidy Mae Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Yay! I was thinking last night that I should post about this. I'll be doing the walk in Orillia for my cousin who has MS. I'll be glad to be out walking for you too aromatherapy. It really is amazing how many people this monster affects. Last year we walked the 10km in pooring rain. :: It went right through my raincoat! :: I just kept thinking that that was nothing to be complaining about. I'm lucky I don't have to wake up and deal with something this difficult on a daily basis. Way to go aromatherapy for getting the word out! That's awesome. :: :: :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Large Marge Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Of course I’ll sponsor you girl! You should have hit me up last night after I’d had a few drinks my money would be much better spent on this than at the Lindy merch table (though I absolutely adored those panties with the “suspension of disbelief” logo on them!!!) Mark me down for a $20 spot. You should do the walk as a Pirate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Compression Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Hey Heidi Beth here, Count me in for a dontation of $20.00. Can I give it to you on Friday night? Can't wait for Wassabi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassedOutGuy Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 I really wish I could help both of you guys with such a great cause... hopefully soon i can make a donation when things turn around a bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aromatherapy Posted March 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Thanks girls! It's so great to see how many people are already aware of this and even better to know that there are people willing to support. And all I need from you Bob is good vibes (which I get anyway) :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchoulia Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Since I sent out a humorous email to select co-workers requesting their support, I can't even begin to tell you how many people have come back and said they have a close friend or relative with MS...
