Hi everyone,
My name is Patti. I had a bone marrow transplant several years ago. I’ve been regularly attending the Happy Feet program for the last few years. I enjoy the sense of community it provides. I also look forward to the speakers and the exercise sessions offered. It’s important to stay motivated, and this program provides the tools necessary for participants to reach their individual and collective goals. Thank you, Jen, for coordinating a wonderful program. Hello and welcome to anyone new to the program, and hello to my returning friends I’ve made from the prior Happy Feet sessions. Let’s keep moving!
