It just doesn't seem fair. TWO of my good friends have husbands diagnosed with ALS. Courtney's husband, Jason, was diagnosed a few years ago and the disease has taken over his entire body. He is still fighting. Lauren's husband Michael, passed away from ALS within 1 year of his diagnosis. It moved so fast, it didn't seem quite possible but it happened.

I am walking for my friends. I am walking in memory of Michael Corbitt and in honor of Jason Uglow. I am walking for everyone that has ALS.

I am walking so that, one day, when Georgians hear the words, “You have ALS,” it will no longer mean that they likely will die within two to five years. I am walking so that Georgians living with ALS today know that they are not alone. I’m walking to assure that when they need help, they will be able to get it from ALS United of Georgia. I am walking to give them hope.

You may not know anyone with ALS, but you do know me, and I am asking for your support. Will you please consider joining me to make strides in the fight against ALS? You can join our team or make a gift to support our team. Either way, with your help, we can enhance the lives of people living with ALS, every day until we find a cure.
