White Bear Hikes For a Cure

Many of you know that along with many other significant issues, Connor battled a disease called HLH (Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis). Yesterday, September 28th, many hiked the Half-Dome in Yosemite to raise money to battle HLH and other Histiocytic Diseases. Because we could not travel to CA this year and particpate in this hike, we hiked on September 18, 2008, Connor's first Anniversary in heaven, in Watkins Glen State Park. Altogether, hikers raised over $150,000 for Histiocytosis research. Thanks so much to those who donated in loving memory of Connor.
Please see the video below of White Bear's participation in our Hike for a Cure for Histiocytosis:
