Wheels and Heels Against MS 2016!
A special post from my brother Paul Keohane:
Hi, everyone -
As the summer continues to swelter
along, the MS Challenge Walk is fast approaching.
After being unable to participate in
last year’s event, Anne is more determined than ever to get back on her bike
and return to battle in our fight against Multiple Sclerosis! Although
Anne’s MS continues to try and get the best of her, she fights back even
harder. She refuses to let MS win and I never cease to be amazed and
inspired by her courage.
On September 9th, we will return to the
roads and bike paths of Cape Cod for our 3-Day, 50-mile journey. As the
MS Challenge Walk enters its 15th year, we remain determined and
steadfast to celebrate that day when MS is nothing but a memory.
Multiple Sclerosis is a frightening
disease that affects the central nervous system. The symptoms may be mild (such as numbness in the limbs) or
severe enough to cause blindness or paralysis. The severity and specifics of
the symptoms of MS can’t yet be predicted, but advances in research and
treatment are giving hope to those affected by the disease.
Each year, we have looked to
you for your emotional and financial support. And each year, you answer
the call and prove yourselves true heroes to our cause. We hope that you
will continue by our side as we walk and ride again to stamp out MS once and
for all. No donation is too small!
Your donations to the
National MS Society not only help fund vital research, but also go towards
helping those who battle this disease every day.
As in the past, there are
two ways you can donate.
