Pay it Forward - Walking n Strolling For Kidneys for the State of Texas Kidney Foundation
That definitely was a walk for a worthy cause. Who knew that Texas leads the country in renal disease caused by diabetes. I wonder why.
Hi Brenda, Glad you got your post out today about this wonderful event. You took some great photo shots, and your post is very informative about kidneys and diabetes. Once you are diagnosed with diabetes, the doctors become concerned about your kidneys. It was a Great Cause and a Nice Day for a Walk too.
Brenda- good for you and what fun you and Jerry must have had. All of the walks and efforts like this call attention to the disease and the need for support and research.
Brenda this is another worthy cause, and I am sure that your participation and donation was very much appreciated.
Hi Brenda. Glad you had a great time for a good cause. I did not know that the kidney had was responsible for helping us to maintain good blood pressure. Thank you for the info!
Hi Jane-Yes it was. Texas is probably number one with the diabetes because we have one of the highest overweight populations.
Hi Jerry-Thanks. Kidneys become even more important once you become diabetic...in fact, a lot of the time they fail leaving diabetics no other alternative but to do dialysis. Not usually a fun day for them.
Hi Kathy-We did have fun and it was a beautiful day to do a walk for a good cause :)!
Hi George-Thank you :)!
Hi Carol Ann-The Kidney is responsible for a lot and is a very important and vital organ :)!
Thank you all for stopping by!
Brenda, I enjoy seeing your post with photos. Great to know you were able to donate for the cause, and meet up with another fellow ActiveRainer. You sure paid it forward, have a great Sunday.
Hi Eileen-I am glad you enjoyed the post and the photos :)! It was a lot of fun and if Jerry hadn't told me about it then I wouldn't have known :)! Thanks so much for stopping by today :)!
Good for you Brenda. This is a great educational post about a very serious disease. How fun for you and Jerry to walk for this great cause - especially when you know its impact in your state.
Hi Debb-Thank you so much! The kidneys are very important and I was happy to do my little part to help :)! Thanks for dropping in today!
