Hi all, I would like to encourage you to support me in helping raise funds to find a cure and additional treatments for ALS. This Saturday I will join the Walk to Defeat ALS in honor of my sister Suzanne Lin, as well as all others impacted by this disease. Suzanne was diagnosed with ALS in late 2022, and previously we lost our aunt Betty to the disease.
While there is currently no cure, there are no less than 100+ clinical trials working towards finding a cure and meaningful treatment.
Thank you for anything you can contribute.
*****************************
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.
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.
