and the grand total is.....

$10,791 is the grand total for the Dystance4Dystonia run we had here in Dothan! YAY TO ALL OF YOU for all your hard work and efforts! Thanks to all the volunteers and donors that made this possible! Without each and every one of you this would not have happened! I can truly say that this is one of the things I've done in my life that I am most proud of! Thanks to you all!!!!!

finding others

So in the last few weeks we have received contact from a few new people seeking a group to fit in. They, like the rest of us, have been diagnosed with Dystonia and feel alone and are looking for a place to belong! Thanks to a combination of our 5k, this blog, the Birmingham group's website, and others, we have been able to become real to those people! Remember in all of your goings to keep an open mind and an open eye. There is never any way to know who you affect and what you can do for someone else! Welcome all new people with open arms and be willing to share your story! It can change a life!
