Wow, we didn't realize Stanford was re-launching this article today! Kind of caught us by surprise, but I'm guessing they're targeting something (who knows what?) specific.
We're all hoping that this is just a small beginning of Tara's quest for greatly increasing moyamoya awareness. She mentioned the other day that her hope is for moyamoya awareness to rival breast cancer in familiarity. (Not that we wish for 1 in 4 women to be diagnosed with MM, but bringing awareness to a comparable par would be awesome, wouldn't it?)
After the flurry of swims the last few months, Tara is scoping out future open water swims. There probably won't be any more until 2009, but the nice thing is that they have them EVERYWHERE (I'm rooting for the one in St. Croix at some point!). This type of swim seems to be more prevalent in the February - October time frame, so stay tuned. She's looking around, seeing what she might be able to pull off, keeping school and her goal of nursing as a priority. She is definitely a woman on a mission, so watch out! We are just beyond proud of her and her lion-size heart.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you all again for your love and support. Many of you are the wind beneath Tara's wings, and we are so blessed to call you our friends.
Big hugs,
Jill (and proud papa, Campbell)
