I promised Dad that I would continue to Walk until
a cure for ALS had been found.  So, here we go! 

June 2023 marks our 14th "Walk to Defeat ALS!"  

Please join Charley's Angel as we continue the fight against this horrible disease!  Anybody can be an ANGEL!

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, and presently there is no known cause or 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. 
 
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. 
 
Please consider walking with me or sponsoring me. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
