I was nominated by Mike Sherpa to particulate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge! I will be making my donation to ALS Foundation For Life! I nominate: Megan Schneiter, Josh Bain, my daughter Kaida, and Adrian Mascarenaz! Here is a little more on ALS! Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrigs Disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons reach from the brain to the spinal cord and from the spinal cord to the muscles throughout the body. The progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to their death. When the motor neurons die, the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed. Please donate!
