As some or none of you may know, my sister in law Lisa was diagnosed with ALS one year ago. It was devastating news to us all. I have know Lisa since I was 14years old. She played softball, is short and has an attitude like no other! I was just like her! She is my role model! My sister from another mother! Lisa has always had my back and I had hers! She’s a Wife, Mom, Sister, Daughter, Aunt and Friend to many. I walk in her honor for a beginning, treatment and cure. She’s my fighter, my hero! She will NEVER fight alone! I please ask you help me in this long journey for her!! 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.
