It's time for the annual Walk to Defeat ALS! Please consider walking with me or sponsoring me to help me raise funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.

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 a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis. ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.

I walk ever year in honor of my Dad to help fight for others who have or have had this cruel disease. We need to change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease & the families that love them. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again.
