Doin' the MS Walk in South NJ on 5/5/13 - will you help?

[Mark T-TB]

I know that I'm a sort of TTA-newbie, but I thought I'd give this a shot. This will be my 4th (I think?) year of Walking.
Why? A few of you may know that [after years of various and mysterious symptoms] my wife was diagnosed with MS back in the mid-90s. At first there were only minor troubles, but since 2006 she has been in a wheelchair and basically has lost more function steadily since.
For anyone that doesn't know, MS is a nasty disease that is mostly found in women ages about 25 to 50. There is no current "prevention" or "cure".
We attended to the Delaware Valley Chapter MS Society "Convention" a few years back... the thing that struck me the most was the need for research $$. There is great need for funds for research as well as other programs.
So - I fundraise by doing this Walk to try to do my little part. To make a donation - Simply click on the link at the bottom of this message, or mail a check (send a P.M.).

Thanks!

Mark enjoy the walk I did it last year and it was 5 km in the rain!!! All of our group fell short but me and my cousin! We still had a great time even though wet. Good luck fundraising!
