The weather is improving, just in time for a well-known walk in the western suburbs. The Walk for Wellness House steps off on Sunday in Hinsdale. Funds go to cancer support, including patients, caregivers, and families, during and after cancer. Doctor Arpi Thukral is this year’s “walk chair.” She came downtown to tell ABC7 about it.
