Please Support Walkin' for Weezie
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm participating in ALS United Greater New York’s Walk ALS to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by ALS.
As many of you know, our Mom, Louise 'Weezie', lost her battle with ALS in September 2003. Within 7 months we watched a beautiful, loving woman succumb to a horrible disease. ALS is a terminal illness that is difficult to diagnose and we're on a mission to help find a cure.
We have raised over $80,000 in the past 19 years and celebrated the progress we are making in the fight against ALS. Thank you so much for all your support.
Mom was a healthy, fun-loving woman who enjoyed her family, friends and especially her 2 beautiful grandsons, until she slowly began show signs of an unknown illness. It took several months, the loss of 30 lbs and the insertion of a feeding tube before she was diagnosed with this fatal disease.
Help the families and patients suffering with ALS today.
Any donation is appreciated.
Thank you & much 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.
