Hi, as many of you know I’ve been battling this dreadful disease for 10 years now. I’m truly blessed so I’m using my life to help the needs of others with the things they can’t provide, did you know it can cost $200,000/year for care of a person fighting ALS? While still helping to raise funds for a CURE. I’m not raising money for me, but for the people that you know that will get ALS. Chances are somebody in your family, friend or an acquaintance will get this disease in your lifetime. ALS has no boundaries, it loves healthy people, unhealthy people, people that think their life is going great or not so great, athletes, lawyers, doctors, construction workers, all PEOPLE, I think you get what I’m saying. We have to continue for a break through. PLEASE WE NEED YOUR HELP AND DONATE AND WALK WITH ME!
Sincerely and God Bless

Why We Need Your Help
Often referred to as Lou Gehrig's Disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of an ALS patient averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis.
Every 90 minutes a person in this country is diagnosed with ALS and every 90 minutes another person will lose their battle against this disease. ALS occurs throughout the world with no racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic boundaries.
This crippling disease can strike anyone. Presently there is no known cause of the disease yet it still costs loved ones an average of $200,000 a year to provide the care ALS patients need. Help make a difference and donate or join a walk today.
