Health and Happiness Walk
Tax deductible
Thank you for finding my charity walk. Please allow me to give you a brief synopsis of the purpose of this walk. I am going forward with this accepting the full responsibility of making this information public in the hopes that the good will outweigh any negatives that may occur.
In December of 2015, my world was flipped on its head within a few short days. I was diagnosed as HIV positive. Late in my diagnosis, my system was dangerously close to AIDS range. Working a full time job and just starting my professional career, the diagnosis dealt a crippling blow to my life plan. With little options, I turned to my local resource clinic, Equitas Health.
Through their care and reassurance, I was able to begin treatment and bolster a new found appreciation for life. My medication regimen proved effective and my body began recovering. I began exercising and taking better care of myself, but also wore a more positive outlook and demeanor. I leaned on my friends and family and they helped raise me up.
Now, a year and a half later, and through diligent adherence to my treatment, my body is recovering and I am leading a healthy and happy life.
I decided it's time for me to help give back. Join me in raising money to donate to my clinic as I lead a walk in honor of my champions; my friends, my family, and Equitas Health. We will walk/run two separate paths starting at Deeds Point park and ending downtown at The Barrel House.
Help me shine light on this disease and that there is help out there. With treatment and preventative measures, HIV doesn't have to be a life stopping diagnosis. There is health and happiness after HIV diagnosis.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will be donated in full to Equitas Health.
Please help me by sharing this post on your page and see how much support we can get. This is an open invitation event.
