My Personal Walk to Defeat ALS Page
The reason and the motivation.
Thank you for helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.
This effort not solely because of my husband and daddy, it is because there are thousands of other hubbies, daddy, mothers, fathers, grandparents, friends affected by this terrible disease. We MUST find a cure and I pray is sooner than later.
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.
Please consider walking with me or sponsoring me/ our team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
With love and hope,
Andrea Rodriguez Tarazi
