CHICAGO MARATHON:
A MOTHER'S REQUEST
A MOTHER'S REQUEST
Last fall, when Laura's (White Spray Paint) husband was diagnosed with
Parkinson's, their youngest daughter took matters into
own hands.
She entered the Chicago Marathon as a member of
Team Fox,
sponsored by the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's research.
She is running for a cure.
Laura writes, "I have felt humbled here and there in my lifetime, certainly, but
our daughter's selfless act of love and devotion has far surpassed anything I have
ever experienced."
She currently wakes at 4:00 a.m.,
drives from Dallas to Lovejoy,
where she teaches high school English,
and does her morning
run
before beginning her teaching day.
Laura is making a simple request, stating that she knows the power of blogland...
"Please display the button above in your sidebar to show your support
and to send Katherine prayers and good wishes."
Laura, her husband and two other daughters will be there cheering
Katherine on.
They want us all there, through our prayers, too!

Katherine's participation, visit her blog
