rockpile Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) It is that time of year again to ask for your help in finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis, and providing help to those who have this disease. Since 2005, YOUR donations sponsoring me, my family, and friends in this annual Walk for the Cure have totaled over $11,000! Thank you!

Security Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you for what you do. I already donate a bunch, so I apologize I will not be adding any more at this point. My wife has MS. Scary disease. Actually my wife, her mom, and her 3 aunts (2 live in US, one they never met, my wife's grandfather fathered a child in Germany before coming to the US, that child stayed with the mother there, so a group of 4 sisters all have it). That is very weird. They have it to varying degrees, different tell tale signs. My aunt also has MS (dad's sister). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear it seems to frequent your wife's family. Everyone's MS is a bit different. Good luck to you and yours!

rockpile Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Thanks! Lots of time left. I just realized this week that I was diagnosed with MS in 1994, so this is my 20th anniversary! I have had it longer, but it can be a "sneaky" disease - relapsng and remitting. The improvements in diagnosis, treatment, and a search for a cure have come a long way. http://main.national...o/family_rocks2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Let me know when the cut-off date is so I can say I missed it again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpile Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) Let me know when the cut-off date is so I can say I missed it again this year. MS Walk is 1st Sunday in May. You can still sponsor me (or miss it again) for another month after the walk. You can contribute to the NMSS or any worthy charity whenever you want! I love being sponsored but it's not about me.

Gugny Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Bumping and letting you know, Rockpile, that I donated to this cause through a friend of mine from Portland, OR. She's an old high school friend who is drop dead gorgeous and promised me, in her words, "a lingering hug," when she's in NY again. I'm sure you understand! Best of luck to you and EVERYONE collecting money for this important fight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
