My personal message:

Dear Friends,

I'm walking to fight Lyme Disease in the first annual TURN THE CORNER FOUNDATION Create Footprints Walk in Westport, CT on April 5, 2009.  I hope you can either walk with us or donate to this very important cause.  Although times are rough in the markets, they are even more difficult for those affected by Lyme and its co-infections. A lot has happened since my daughter, Jacqueline, was infected over 8 years ago including the segment about her difficult journey on Discovery Channel’s Mystery Diagnosis, and more recently the movie UNDER OUR SKIN. I would like to help find a cure for this disease and increase awareness within the medical community so that neither you nor your families ever have to go through the destruction that this disease causes. Thank you for being here for us during the many years. Your support and donations of any size will be greatly appreciated!
