Pulmonary Fibrosis Walk

I traveled more than an hour to participate in this event.  The disease its against is a horrible, awful thief of life.  The lungs become brittle and breathing becomes more and more difficult and more inefficient until the victim strangles to death.
     I hate it.
    Most of the people in this photo have lost someone important in their lives and use this effort as a way to fight back.  Thousands of dollars were raised today at this one event and these walks are held all across the country.
