Raising Brain Tumor Awareness: Former Clients Turn Family Tragedy Into Something Positive with 1st Annual Mary E. Smith Walk

Share |

As a Chicago medical malpractice attorney I have seen all sides of human nature - the good, the bad, and the ugly. However, on a rare occasion I am inspired by clients' reactions to a personal tragedy. The Mary E. Smith family are just such clients. They responded to their mother's unnecessary death due to medical negligence by setting up a foundation to raise brain tumor awareness and honor their mother's memory.

In addition to providing the public with health information regarding brain tumors, the Mary E. Smith Foundation awards several annual scholarships. The Mary E. Smith Foundation is now adding to their community outreach goals with its 1st Annual Mary E. Smith Tumor Awareness Walk. The walk details are as follows:

When: Saturday, August 14, 2010. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m., with the walk starting at 9:00 a.m.
Where: The Community Walk Path, 4200 W. 183rd St., Country Club Hills, IL 60478. (Next to the Farmer’s Market at the Country Club Hills Theater)
Cost: $10 for 1-mile walk and free T-shirt (children under 12 free)
For more information, visit www.maryesmithfoundation.org or call 708-342-0800.
