Standing up to POTS was thrilled to be the beneficiary of a 5K Walk/Run that was coordinated by the Pre-Health Club of Wittenberg University. Nearly 100 people joined together on a snowy, blustery Saturday morning on April 9, 2016. While the weather was cold, our hearts were warm. Families living with POTS joined together for the event and to meet others who understand life with chronic illness. Some ran, others walked, and a few rolled their way toward the finish line in their wheelchairs. We raised over $12,000 at the event.
