I need your support!
On February 21st, 2010 I will be running a 10 mile race in Prospect Park to raise money for my cousin and his family. My cousin, Michael, was diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. ALS in a degenerative and progressive neurological disease and there is no known cure. Motor cells in the spinal cord and brain degenerate, leading to muscle weakness and loss of mobility, speech, swallowing, and respiratory function. Michael is now in a wheelchair and uses a speech assistive device to communicate. Please support me in helping Mike, his wife, Chris, and their three children, Sarah, Alex, and Lizzy, cope with this disease. Medical care, home care, assistive technologies and equipment are just a few of the mounting expenses that Mike and Chris have. Any amount is truly appreciated.
