So...the ice bucket challenge for ALS has arrived and gone viral. I participated in this today. I explained on my video that I knew that the different research organizations were now sharing important research information, which in turn may help each other in the search for cures. My Mother had Parkinson's Disease. Two of my brothers have diabetes and one has Parkinson's Disease. So, this stuff hits home for me.
I will be walking in the Dayton ALS Walk on September 14th on the team called "Brook's Bunch". Brook was our neighbor who died from ALS. He was the 2nd friend we have lost to that awful disease. All the research seems to be paying off, as they are getting closer to cures for these diseases. I pray it is soon!
Anyway, if you have never considered donating to a cause....please consider!
