Hui Chen has done an enormous thing with her life - she's REALLY walking the walk - some support and encouragement would go a long way to help her on her journey. We're in this together with her.
I'm including a shot of what I found on her Twitter page.
I salute Hui Chen. @HuiChenEthics
My tweet to Hui Chen: You are REALLY walking the walk - I admire you for your commitment, Don't let the derogatory knuckle-draggers get you down.
