    We are so looking forward to this conference; we are eager to meet Leah Darrow. We are from Chicago (our
    daughter is at Wash U Medical) and are active in Respect
    Life in the Archdiocese of Chicago. We are planning too for the October 18 speaking engagement at Ascension
    Parish in Oak Park. Many of us are working to get the word out to young people for this. Thank you for what you do. KM
