After years of helping you regain your physical independence, Del celebrated your progress with a trip to the driving range & golf course on Thursday.
You both came home with huge grins and fantastic stories. Something about your first ball going into the rough and instead of leaving it, you insisted on playing both balls all the way down the fairway only to finish by making a 36 ft put!
Way back in November while you were spending a month at Hopkins, Shanon Davis invited you to the 2016 Boston Marathon to cheer for your great friend Charlotte Davis ... and we thought why not.... What a great thing to look forward to! Charlotte ran last year in the Boston Marathon in your honor, raising over $13,000 for the Boston Medical Center and A Place To Be. We needed to be there in person this year. So Friday Toliver and I flew with you to Boston.
Today with Shannon, Jim, and Charlotte we toured historic Boston. We saw the sight of the Boston Masacre, Paul Revere's house, and you stood on the Boston Marathon finish line with Charlotte and Toliver. Toliver was styling in his blue and gold CCI vest! Quite a few folks asked us if he was wearing an official Boston Marathon Cape!
Monday Charlotte will run 26.2 miles again. Running every step to raise money for the Boston Medical Center and A Place To Be. Forrest and Toliver will be there to cheer her over the finish line!
There is still time to help Charlotte in her Quest.
Blessed with generous loving friends,
Team Forrest
