As most of you are aware I lost my beautiful mother last May to ALS. Not a day goes by that I don't miss her and wish this had never happened. ALS is a heartbreaking disease that very much needs a cure.
That’s why I’m walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again.
Please consider joining our walk (Please see team name "Jane Marie" and/or donating to the fundraising goal.)
ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or 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. (Devastatingly my mother only survived 3 months after her diagnosis date)
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families.
But, we can’t stop now. The key to a cure begins with you.
