Thank you for donating and helping me reach my Walk ALS fundraising goal! The walk raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to fight this 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. 

As many of you know, my brother, Jeff, suffered from ALS and died four years ago.  I can personally testify to the devastation of this disease.  Any little bit of help for someone affected by ALS is incredibly appreciated.  There is a lot of equipment, medication and care required and we are trying to make this burden just a bit easier.

That’s why I’m walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To support the caregivers who help their loved one fight this disease.   To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again!  

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 starts with all of US.  Please consider walking with me or making a donation to my team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
