First of all, thank you to Jenny Reed and all those who contributed to “hugging strangers”! I did it and boy that is not easy.. but was fun once I did! Definitely forces one to make a real connection and memorable moment in time. Forces you to break from your pattern and be present, something that I personally loved about doing it.

Next chemo is this Thursday, and the cheer is inspired by an old friend of Hilary’s, Steffi Dehne Thibault. Steffi just had her 30th high school reunion (Germantown Friends School in Philly) and was scanning photos and the idea came to her to do a “first with Hilary.”  Hilary was the first person I met at .. or Hilary was the first person I told xyz… you get the idea. I am going to expand on it a bit, in case you do not have a 1st with Hilary, but one of the things that my sister is good at is connecting with people and making them feel comfortable. You can also write in how you met Hilary and why you connected or what has kept you connected.

Feel free to send me a few lines, if you have any photos even better. I’ll try to put a little book  or something together.

Stay cool and please email to me Becca Dobberfuhl by Tuesday, June 13th
