I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>
<p>Support my walk in the half-marathon by contributing $$ to help me reach my $500 fundraising goal. To donate, go to my <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/TishaBerg" target="_blank">sponsor page</a></strong>.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>
<p>Walk (or run) with us! Chandra promises to keep the Beyonce cranked up on the iPod speakers for inspiration, so get out your running shoes and join us! The deadline to sign up as a team member is February 5th. Join the team <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/sarinasgroup" target="_blank">here</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Over the years, Chandra has been an incredibly supportive friend and an inspiration to me and I am beyond thrilled to be able lend a helping hand, however small, towards her CureMito efforts.</p>
<p>Now, I just need to get out of this post-vacation slump and get out on the track for some trial run/walks. Time is ticking! Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your help!

Well. Here we are 2012. Happy New Year!! It&#8217;s definitely time to do some reflecting. regrouping. All the &#8220;re&#8217;s&#8221; &#8211; except resolutions. I gave up on those years ago. Instead of making the same old empty promises, I have spent time reviewing and retooling my goals for each year.

Happy Sunday! We&#8217;ve been having some chilly weather here in SoCal for the last few days and for the first time in the six years I&#8217;ve lived here I actually feel like I need a coat.

I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>
<p>Support my walk in the half-marathon by contributing $$ to help me reach my $500 fundraising goal. To donate, go to my <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/TishaBerg" target="_blank">sponsor page</a></strong>.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>
<p>Walk (or run) with us! Chandra promises to keep the Beyonce cranked up on the iPod speakers for inspiration, so get out your running shoes and join us! The deadline to sign up as a team member is February 5th. Join the team <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/sarinasgroup" target="_blank">here</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Over the years, Chandra has been an incredibly supportive friend and an inspiration to me and I am beyond thrilled to be able lend a helping hand, however small, towards her CureMito efforts.</p>
<p>Now, I just need to get out of this post-vacation slump and get out on the track for some trial run/walks. Time is ticking! Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your help!

<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>
<p>Support my walk in the half-marathon by contributing $$ to help me reach my $500 fundraising goal. To donate, go to my <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/TishaBerg" target="_blank">sponsor page</a></strong>.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>

I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster!

I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>
<p>Support my walk in the half-marathon by contributing $$ to help me reach my $500 fundraising goal. To donate, go to my <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/TishaBerg" target="_blank">sponsor page</a></strong>.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>
<p>Walk (or run) with us! Chandra promises to keep the Beyonce cranked up on the iPod speakers for inspiration, so get out your running shoes and join us! The deadline to sign up as a team member is February 5th. Join the team <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/sarinasgroup" target="_blank">here</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Over the years, Chandra has been an incredibly supportive friend and an inspiration to me and I am beyond thrilled to be able lend a helping hand, however small, towards her CureMito efforts.</p>
<p>Now, I just need to get out of this post-vacation slump and get out on the track for some trial run/walks. Time is ticking! Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your help!

I routinely feel the urge to &#8220;drop out&#8221; and go raise my family somewhere in a quaint rural farming community or to drag them along with me as I join the Peace Corps, go off to find the meaning of life and save the world, one volunteer project at a time.

As I write this I am exhausted. Not necessarily physically (although there is a bit of that too), but mostly I&#8217;m mentally worn out from having yet another discussion with parents at my daughter&#8217;s school about the frustration we feel over the threat of more budget cuts to some of our school&#8217;s programs. My kids [...]<p><a href="http://bizmommy.com/2012/01/curemito-chandra-wilson/">Walk for a Cure: Pasadena Half-Marathon with Chandra Wilson to Benefit CureMito</a> is a post from: <a href="http://bizmommy.com">Biz Mommy</a>

I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>
<p>Support my walk in the half-marathon by contributing $$ to help me reach my $500 fundraising goal. To donate, go to my <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/TishaBerg" target="_blank">sponsor page</a></strong>.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>

The deadline to sign up as a team member is February 5th. Join the team <strong><a href="http://active.com/donate/curemito/sarinasgroup" target="_blank">here</a></strong>.</p>

<p>Now, I just need to get out of this post-vacation slump and get out on the track for some trial run/walks. Time is ticking! Any suggestions?</p>

Happy Halloween!

I&#8217;ve got a lot of reviews, giveaways and interesting topics backed up, so catching up will be somewhat daunting, but I think I&#8217;m finally up for the challenge.</p>
<p>First up is something I feel is extremely worthy to write about, mostly because in my opinion, blogging is best when it&#8217;s personal and used to help or uplift others. And it&#8217;s especially rewarding when you get to set your sights on helping someone special, particularly a very dear friend.</p>
<p>Next month, I&#8217;ll be <del>running</del> walking with my wonderful long-time friend, actress <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/greys-anatomy-chandra-wilsons-real-life-medical-mystery/story?id=13328839#.TyWuCVyJewQ" target="_blank">Chandra Wilson</a>, in the Rock and Roll Pasadena Half-Marathon to benefit the <a href="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6477" title="chandra-wilson-2007emmy2" src="http://bizmommy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/chandra-wilson-2007emmy2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="273" /></a><a href="http://curemito.org/" target="_blank">CureMito Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>CureMito is a research organization that seeks to provide medical assistance and relief to patients suffering from a disorder known as Mitochondria. Mito patients may suffer from a host of functional disorders such as Autism, SIDS, migraine, chronic fatigue , fibromyalgia,  cyclical vomiting syndrome, and IBS, that have a basis in the body’s energy production function. Mitochondrial Disorder is a common cause of seizures and stroke in children and is more prevalent than all childhood cancers combined.</p>
<p>Chandra serves as Ambassador for the CureMito Foundation because last year her daughter was diagnosed with <a href="http://www.cvsaonline.org/" target="_blank">Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome</a> (CVS), as the result of an underlying Mitochondrial dysfunction. She spent many months trying to figure out why her teenager was suddenly overcome by constant bouts of vomiting and illness that would keep her in the hospital and out of school for weeks on end.</p>
<p>Doctors initially ran test after test only to remain stumped by what the cause of these  painful episodes was. Then, finally, after being put in contact with Dr. Richard Boles, a pioneer in research for Mitrochondrial disorders, Sarina was officially diagnosed with CVS.  She was subsequently placed on a strict nutritional and lifestyle regimen which has been helping her to successfully manage her illness.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there are other kids who are not so lucky. Mitochondrial disorders take on many different forms and cures are not always so readily available. The CureMito Foundation seeks to continue and enhance it&#8217;s research and development of treatments for Mitochondrial diseases.</p>
<p>And with the support from funds raised via the <a href="http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/2011/05/pasadena/rock-%E2%80%98n%E2%80%99-roll-series-launches-pasadena-half-marathon_11940" target="_blank">Pasadena Rock and Roll Half-Marathon</a>, they will be able to do just that.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m asking for your support in one (or all!) of three ways:</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Share</span></h2>
<p>Spread the word about the CureMito Foundation and the Pasadena Half-Marathon and help families and sufferers of the disease to get their diagnosis sooner and get answers faster! Thanks so much for your <strong><a href="http://clicktotweet.com/466iI" target="_blank">Tweets</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/BizMommyMedia" target="_blank">FB Likes</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/104201245102252585542/plusones" target="_blank">+1&#8242;s</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbizmommy.com%2F2012%2F01%2Fcuremito-chandra-wilson%2F" target="_blank">Stumbles</a></strong>!</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Donate</span></h2>

<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Walk</span></h2>
<p>Walk (or run) with us! Chandra promises to keep the Beyonce cranked up on the iPod speakers for inspiration, so get out your running shoes and join us!

<p>Over the years, Chandra has been an incredibly supportive friend and an inspiration to me and I am beyond thrilled to be able lend a helping hand, however small, towards her CureMito efforts.</p>
<p>Now, I just need to get out of this post-vacation slump and get out on the track for some trial run/walks. Time is ticking! Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your help!
