Team Lourenco ( my team ) had 19 walkers, a dog which whom was my uncle's dog ( the uncle in who's memory we were walking in) and my toddler. My daughter walked for a bit but was kind of a hazard because she would randomly stop and cause a traffic jam so up on grandpa's shoulders she went then into the carriage. It was a nice walk with perfect weather. Lucky the dog was a surprise and the perfect touch, Lucky was my uncle Carlos' little buddy those two were inseparable. He now lives with my other uncle and is doing very well, I am sure he misses me uncle like we all do.
The sponsors of this walk thought of everything and were so considerate, they had tissues on hand for anyone that would need them, snacks, water, music, and a Wall of Remembrance for anyone to write on. I am glad I did this, if I can prevent just one family from feeling the pain and anguish my family has been going through then my job is done.
Take a look at Team Lourenco, the wall of Remembrance and maybe one day there will be a world without suicide till then hug your loved ones and tell them you love them.
