In Loving Memory of Yolanda Carrizosa Five years ago, our family lost a beautiful soul ? my Mother, Yolanda Carrizosa ? to ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). Not a day goes by that we don?t think of her strength, kindness, and the love she shared with everyone around her. ALS is a heartbreaking disease that steals so much from those who face it, and from the families who love them. In honor of Yolanda?s memory, we?re asking friends and family to help support the fight against ALS. If you feel led to give, any donation ? big or small ? would mean the world to us. Every bit helps bring hope to others and supports research toward finding a cure. Please consider donating to the ALS Association Fund: [insert donation link here] From our family to yours ? thank you for helping us keep our Mothers light shining bright. #ALS #EndALS #ALSAwareness #InMemoryOfYolanda #ForeverInOurHearts
Thank you for donating and helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.
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.
That?s why I?m walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To support the caregivers who help their loved one fight this disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: ?You Have ALS? again!
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families.
But, we can?t stop now! The key to a cure starts with all of US. Please consider walking with me or making a donation to my team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
