"When Your Legs Get Tired, Run with Your Heart!!!"



Falmouth Road Race 2O21 ~~~ 

            We all needed that! After a long year + a half of limited gatherings, minimal fundraising opportunities, and, simply put: doom&gloom... Sunday the 15th was "just what the doctor ordered." 


             


        



                    Not only did we get to make a mini "Cape-Escape" to spend time with our fantastic family, but MotherNature surely cooperated quite nicely

"Smell the Sea ~ Taste the Sky ~ Let Your Soul&Spirit FLY"

Not what we envisioned for our Summer ~~~
              facemasks, six-feet-apart
{everything} 


SUMMER, especially for my family&me, usually means getting to ESCAPE to The Cape, visiting family! Ever since 2012, it has meant that one Sunday in August, we'd be venturing to our beloved home-away-from-home to cheer on my big sister, Courtney & rest of Team BIA-MA as they *floated~along* the shoreline in the
Falmouth Road Race! 


 It has been ten-years since my injury; and I'm certain that I wouldn't be where I am without BIA-MA! Honestly, I can't think of an organization more deserving/worthy of some *extra* help.

}~>LiONS Know NO Boundaries<~{

Throughout these scary&uncertain days the whole world is facing, we could all use a respite of some sort. 
What better "escape" than to bring a mini mask-wearing LiON into the mix!?!
We MENDON LIONS currently have two temporary "Visitors/Teachers" ~~                            Lilo & Lucas

LUCAS was my house-guest for a couple days... DoRYBLue didn't really know what to make of him!!

 Isn't it kind of whimsical, if you will, that a figurine can be that "mood-boosting" example we all are seeking-out?!?

Not Just My *SOCCER~NUMBER* ... 10{Years} !!!


~>BEAST #10<~

 
I "owned" that title all throughout my 4-years of
Varsity-Soccer! Now, on this date: April 18, 2020 ~
I'm looking at my Soccer number a little differently.



Most, if not all of you, know my story; so I won't go into it here&now!






It has been ten years of ups and downs {physically&cognitively};
Triumphs and Setbacks;
Laughs and Tears {bunches of both}!!






Ten years of fighting to reclaim my identity,
while also sculpting-out a "new" one. 
Meeting such influential individuals, like our MA Senator Harriett Chandler, while advocating for Survivors&Caregivers!
