I use a mulivitamin with iron patch made for bariatric patients. They also make them with specific uses such as arthritis. The whole month's worth is the size and weight of a couple of playing cards.

I will be walking in honor of and hopefully "with" my late son. We were supposed to do it together. Otherwise I have nothing in Common with Tom as I will have to go very slow and with short distances and am pretty social by nature.

I start in SJPP on the 10th. As I will be very, very slow, you will probably pass me and I hope to meet you as I have greatly benefitted from this forum!
