Wheels & Heels Against MS, 2018!
From my brother Paul Keohane:
Hi, everyone -
A few weeks ago, my wife and I were visiting friends down in
Dennis. Their new cottage just happens to be on a road that my sister
Anne and I travel past during the last mile of our 3-day MS Challenge
walk. A short distance further is another street whose name carries more
and more significance with each passing year. It is called “Perseverance
Path”.
On September 7, I will begin my 16th year
participating in the MS Challenge Walk. Seeing that street sign
earlier this month was a strong reminder that, although the journey to a cure
may be long, the will to fight must remain strong. As long as MS persists
and continues to affect my sister, than I will persist as well.
Speaking of persistence, my sister Anne is once again showing her
unyielding courage and determination by taking on the 3-day, 50-mile challenge
with me. We look forward to joining forces with our friends and fellow
warriors down at Cape Cod and continuing to raise awareness of MS and raising
money to get us closer to that cure.
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 all
affected by the disease.
Your donations to the National MS
Society are the key to these exciting treatments. We hope that you decide
to persist in the fight with us and be that beacon of hope for all who battle
this disease. No donation is too small!
As in the past, there are two ways
you can donate.
