Murph's Mafia
Dad lost his battle with ALS on February 20, 2004.
The 2025 Walk ALS is on June 7, 2026.
How much time is that?
22 years, 3 months, 18 days or
267 months, 18 days or
1,163 weeks and 2 days or
8,143 days or
195,432 hours or
11,725,920 minutes or
703,555,200 seconds
First, get that song from RENT out of your head.
Then, think about this - the average time from diagnosis to death is 2 to 5 years.
That is a lot fewer seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years than anyone deserves. We fight to find treatment to extend their time with us but also patient care to make that time QUALITY time with family and friends.
Murph's Mafia is about the power of many coming together to do something greater than any of us could alone. Join us on June 7 by clicking that 'join team' button or donating today to show your support for Dad and everyone with 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.
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.
Thank you.
