One of Patricia's favorite quotes from Jimmy K .
"But it’s going to take all of me, and it’s going to take all of you, and all the people that you are going to talk to, and all the people you are going to carry the message to, to make this a greater reality. There are people out there dying of our disease. There are people all over this world dying of our disease and, believe it or not, we are truly the only people who can really help them. Let’s never forget that. You and I have been given, through illness through suffering and through disease, a talent for helping other human beings like ourselves. Let’s never forget that we have it and are responsible for others."
All of me.....all of you..if we are going to make this a greater reality. Contrary to popular belief we ain't there yet, its still is going to take all of us to show up.
