The capitol steps were filled with people, standing, sitting, waiting for the sun to set. Everyone was waiting for the Light the Night walk to begin. There were old folks, survivors, students, moms and dads, all toting different colored balloons and donning blue t-shirts. It didn’t matter that we didn’t know each other, we stood and chatted and waited to light the balloons and start. Some were there to honor their relatives; some were there to bring awareness to the disease; all were there for a common cause. It was great just seeing some many people coming out to walk.
