Each year, we participate in the Take Steps for Crohn's & Colitis walk in Raleigh. My Dad was diagnosed at the age of 51 with Crohn's. He has always said he is one of the lucky ones because with medicine he is able to keep his Crohn's under control. What the crazy thing is - each one of his treatments that he has to take bi-monthly in addition to daily medicines is almost $15,000. Therefore, one of my passions is each year to get our family and friends to walk with us and help raise money.
This year we were able to raise over $2,600 and had our biggest crowd yet. Plus, we won the t-shirt contest and top corporate team! Thank you to everyone who participated and donated - we truly appreciate it. I long for the day that my Dad can say he's is Crohn's free!
Top Corporate Team - a BIG thank you to Robins & Morton and our wonderful co-workers
The "Jones' Crohnies" team!
