Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. 

My Dad was diagnosed with ALS in February 2021 after undergoing an extremely invasive, and risky, spine procedure that did not halt the progression of weakness in his arms. He was a carpenter by trade and when he lost the use of his arms, he felt that he had lost everything. That was only the beginning. He subsequently lost so much more, ultimately becoming disable from him neck down. ALS took him from us in March 2023, 24 months after his diagnosis. His battle had a profound impact on our family, and I am committed to honoring his fight and supporting others in theirs. I’m honored to serve on the Board of Directors at ALS United CT, where I have the privilege of working alongside passionate advocates, devoted families, and amazing professionals committed to making a difference. Our mission is not just to bring visibility to this devastating disease, but to offer real hope through research, community, and care.

Nobody fights alone.

I'm participating in ALS United Connecticut's Walk ALS to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by ALS.

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 regardless of age, gender, nationality, or ethnicity, although it is primarily an adult-onset disease. Currently there is no known cause or cure.

Being a part of ALS United Connecticut's Walk ALS is the number one way to unite and fundraise for those living with ALS. Please consider supporting my efforts by donating through my fundraising page.

Your donation today will help fund resources and services to the local ALS community; help find new ALS treatments and move us closer to a world without the disease.

Please feel free to send this page to any friend or family member who might be interested in donating!

Together We End ALS.

Always Daddy's Little Girl,

Diana
