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.

As many of you know, we lost my mom to ALS eleven years ago. She was the most amazing mother, grandmother, wife, daughter and we miss her every day. She fought valiantly for twenty short months from diagnosis until the time she left us. We walk as a family every year, led by my mom's oldest granddaughter Courtney Angus, so that we can raise money to END ALS.

ALS United Mid-Atlantic was not just a faceless charity to us. They offered support to my mom and our family, providing invaluable equipment to make her life easier, resources to help us learn about this disease, and genuine care from their staff. In addition, they raise money for treatments and ultimately a care. No one should ever lose their mom/grandmom/daughter to this horrific disease again. Let's make this happen.

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.
