==========2009 Chicago============

This past year depression and suicide have impacted me personally multiple times.

On November 3, 2008, my cousin, Dustin Pegar, committed suicide.
On January 26, 2009, my close friend since college and one of my soul-sisters, Susan Tucker (Bowen), committed suicide.

The Out of the Darkness Overnight Experience is a 20-mile walk over the course of one night. Net proceeds benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, funding research, education, and awareness programs – both to prevent suicide and to assist those affected by suicide.

I walk in their memory.
I walk for myself - to make myself remember and do something positive with the energy; to make myself healthier.
I walk because I want to get people talking to me, and/or their friends/family about depression and suicide and how it impacts so many people.
I walk for their families who are in NH and CA.
I walk for their friends who can't take the time off work to do it themselves.
I walk cause I'm slightly nutty.
I walk to spend a night with great friends from across the country who I don't get to see often enough.

Please support me as I take an amazing journey with my team, Susan's Stars, and all the other amazing walkers out in the Chicago night.

To follow my progress either watch me on Twitter or read my blog.

Thanks & Many Hugs!
Yvette
