Each year the Schneider family attends the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America's Breath of Life Ball. Grandpa Shel, a retired allergist, founded the non-profit organization back in the day and continues to be a big supporter. This year was especially fun because Aaron and I were actually serious contenders in one of the live auction items. We were the second to the last bidders on a weekend in Aspen at the St. Regis.
You'll notice at the end of the photo show that there is a picture of me with Jackie Joyner-Kersee. She was one of the honorees this year (along with two other Olympic medalists who suffer from asthma). I was too intimidated to ask for her photo until just at the last minute when we were waiting in the valet line. She had already changed into her street clothes and was on the way to the airport. She didn't really wear a track suit to the ball!
