Because you can...

Imagine that today I told you that you have ALS and even though you feel fine now eventually you would likely wake up without the ability to walk, talk or do any normal activities on your own. Devastating…terrifying…and a reality for those who are diagnosed with ALS.

The saying is “walk a mile in their shoes” and for many of those with ALS, they can’t…and that’s why people like my sister Courtney are walking to raise money to support those with ALS. She is walking because she can…because she cares… and because we should support these amazing individuals who are battling ALS every day.

So take a few minutes and check out Courtney’s walk fundraising page through the ALS Association (Arizona Chapter). This organization is an essential support system for those with ALS and they are doing amazing work for these individuals and their loved ones.

This isn’t the first time I’ve talked about supporting this cause – if you want to check out more information about ALS visit my blog from last year:
