In just a few weeks, Sara Binkley-Tow and her husband Jeff will be putting their lives on the line and tackling a massive challenge to raise awareness for postpartum depression and money for PPD support organizations.  They will be swimming more than 50 miles across Lake Michigan.

Did you hear me say 50 miles? I doubt I could swim a mile even if a shark was chasing me. Of course, there aren’t any sharks in Lake Michigan, but whatever …

50 MILES!!!!!

Here is an awesome story about what they’re doing from the Washington Post. I think it’s so fantastic that such a major newspaper would cover this.

As the big day — August 15 — gets closer and closer, be sure to follow along on their Facebook page, Through the Blue, or at their website. And they are still accepting donations that will eventually get distributed to organizations like Postpartum Progress and Postpartum Support International. To donate, click here.

Thank you so much Sara and Jeff for what you are doing to support all of us. My prayers are with you!!
