Anticipation for the train ride known as #CPChatNow built up before the usual 8pm ET departure time.

Personally I tracked my own countdown, about 15 tweets away from the 10,000-tweet Twitter milestone.

My co-host Reaching for the Stars Foundation Student Ambassador Blake Henry put us on a path to discuss Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month.

Devin raised great points about Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month, sparking thought-provoking dialogue.

CP Awareness Month can also trigger reflection.

Amidst the engaging dialogue I reached the 10,000-tweet milestone.

The startle reflex quip incorporates a real life issue many with cerebral palsy encounter.

Also we saw a new face join us.

Our welcoming nature went on display too when a familiar face popped in after going MIA for awhile.

Admittedly not everything went smoothly last night.

Blake and I will use this as a learning experience moving forward to emphasize how time changes could affect #CPChatNow’s start time in different time zones. Speaking about learning experiences and Blake though, we stand one week closer to #THEDECISION.

Shall we conclude this week’s recap and ask the Extend the Conversation Question? Do you feel Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month works or gets lost in the awareness month dilution? Comment with your answer!

The live Twitter chat #CPChatNow takes place every Wednesday at 8pm ET.
