I just want to thank everyone for all their support, I'm amazed at all the good wishes. First of all, I just want to say that Tyler was with me every step of the way. I had the wristband on and it's staying on until Tyler is completely well. I thought about him several times during the run. It was amazing to see people in wheelchairs, with hearing aids, with canes becasue they were blind, it made my run seem trival in return. These are the folks that I'm in awe of. But, I made it and I made it standing up and it was the best thing to see Joe waiting for me at the finish. I just started bawling when I saw him. As I came around the corner, the finish line kept moving farther and farther away. I thought I'd never make it. As to all of the folks in MA, THANK YOU for all of the unbelievable support!!! We had water, oranges, bananas, tissue, aspirin, you name it - it was there. I couldn't have made it without them. They almost had me crying a couple of times because I needed the push and they were there. I saw Elvis, little girls jumping on trampolines, Santa Claus with his elves, bands at the colleges playing for us, girls with signs giving kisses away. I'd do it again just to see all of this. And I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to Mike Corbett, a big ABB fan who made all of this happen. Thank you all again, I can't tell you how much your good wishes meant to me!!!!! Vicky
