Guest guest Posted November 1, 2004 Report Share Posted November 1, 2004 Pamala - Please tell belle how proud we are of her. I will never forget your daughter. Every year there are so many children I meet at the convention, and I try and remember as many as I can. Many stick out in my mind for one reason or another. belle sticks out in my mind because of her SMILE and her infectious personality. I can only imagine how supportive her friends are, because she probably is a GREAT friend to have. I am very glad that she is finding that her friends can be supportive and understanding of her with regards to RSS. 3.5 miles for her is incredible!!!! > > Just wanted to share the great news about belle's walk. > She made it 3.5 miles on Saturday.
