• Thank you for visiting my ALS walk page. I'm walking this year in memory of my amazing husband Wayne. Wayne battled ALS for 16 months. He loved life and demonstrated incredible strength and determination while fighting this monster. Wayne was taken from us at 52 years old , He had so many plans and so much more living to do. With this walk I am hoping to raise awareness for this horrible disease, raise money for new treatments and hopefully a cure in the near future. As of right now if you're diagnosed with ALS there is nothing out there. Please share my page, donate to ALS, come walk with us. ALS can take someone you love

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 Greater New York’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!

Thank you.
