Title: The Borderline Walk in Toronto, Canada Sunday May 25th
Post by: Reality on April 21, 2014, 06:11:09 AM
Please find the link below.  This walk is organized by the Sasha Menu-Courey family and friends, the same people who facilitated the Valerie Porr presentation in March in Toronto. 

It is a great initiative.  There are people carrying posters explaining BPD as well as the various treatment options.  Only two hours from 10 until noon on Sunday May 25th.

Hi pessim-optimist:

There is something very empowering about a visible community event like this.  Everyone wears the orange t-shirt and the walk is along the park on Lake Ontario, so it is quite beautiful. 

Last year, I met a lady there who told me my son's obituary where I described BPD had saved her life, literally. 

There is strength in a group of people.
