My team was named Sharla Schooley's Angels: Simply the Breast. I didn't start on a team, but one of the ladies in my SHOUT group is Sharla, and her brother was the team captian. Sharla wasn't able to walk because she had a recurrance to her organs before the walk, and wasn't handling the chemo well at all. I didn't know any of the people in my team before the walk, but I am glad I had a chance to meet them and be apart of this family for a weekend. One of the biggest perks of a team are "walker stalkers." Different teams had their own, and the walker stalker would pick up our jackets after the cold turned warm, bring a different lunch than the cold chicken breast sandwich, and snacks along the way...It was great.
