October will be 2 years that we lost MaryAnn to ALS. She never gave up the fight or her faith. She accepted this disease for what it was and as much as she struggled she never complained. She was the rock of our family but we thank God everyday for the unforgettable memories we have of time spent with her❤ Thank you for supporting our cause in memory of MaryAnn this year! Please consider joining our team and walking with us! We hope improved treatments and a cure can be found for this disease! Never give up! Let’s walk for the ones that can’t!!

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.
