Each spring, the first Sunday in May sees the streets bordering the north side of Hinsdale Hospital transform into
the route of the annual Walk for Wellness House (WH). People afflicted by cancer, their families,
friends, and WH staff gather for a morning of companionship, light exercise, and fun. The act of walking is symbolic. Cancer is a journey on a route with many travelers.

“That’s when I first had found out about Wellness House,” she said.
Thukral is serving as co-chair of this year’s Walk for Wellness House on Sunday, May 5. Touring the Hinsdale facility, coordinating the annual fundraising ball and joining the board of directors deepened her connection with the organization over the years.
