"Hello" from Karen's Post!! (w/Video!) October 3rd, at 2:50pm
Dear Friends:I want to thank all of you who were involved in the run for Karen. I feel so honored that the wonderful people in the NOVA Club held that race for me. I only wish that I could have been there to thank everyone in person. But, unfortunately, I was still in the hospital, recovering from a second brain surgery. I can’t wait until I can run again. I miss it so much. Perhaps one day soon I will pass you on the trails and say hi! The good news is that I am walking with the help of a cane. Sometimes, I can do it without the cane. Wow!
All: Karen/Paul have sent me the latest video of Karen walking unassisted!! Enjoy the video.....amazing! Steve T ('blogmaster'). (click here for video)
(Note: The video is approx 8MB-30 sec in length, so download time for those with 56K modems is approx two election cycles (Paul speak :-); All other connections will be less then a minute. Also, the video is in "mov" format, which is an Apple Quicktime/iTunes application. If you don't have this on your PC/Windows computer, you'll need to go to the Apple site and download the software -- approx 30MB. This may be a good idea in that any following videos will be in this format)

It is so good to read your post!!!!! The video of you walking defines what strength is!
WOW!!!!!!!!!
You ROCK!!!!
I'm headed to D.C. in March with our high school choir and band. I hope we can meet "in person" finally during that visit.
Keep up the great work! You are awesome:D

Karen, I'm so glad to see your first post on the blog. :) I'll be contacting you with the Runango forum information soon as we all hope to be seeing you on the forum again soon!
You are an amazing person and I'll say it again even though I told you before... we all know you'd be the first person to be there for one of us if something happened to us. So I am not surprised at all that your running club held that fundraiser run for you. I knew you were a special person from that first time I met you in DC for a run and now can see how many others feel the same way. :)
Take care and keep up the great progess. I have no doubt we'll be seeing you running again soon. I hope you'll be on a Sabrina's Dream Team again someday soon!! :)

Karen, it is so good to hear from you. :) So glad to hear that you are walking, and that your recovery is progressing so well. I have no doubt you will run again. You are amazing.
Take care,
Caylynn
