I'm walking to beat arthritis
Please Support me as I walk,
I'm participating in the Arthritis WalkŪ this year. This is the first time I
have done this and I am really looking forward to it. I'll be joining many
others to walk 3 miles and share in the joy of accomplishing a feat that many
people like me with arthritis find it hard to do. The net proceeds will support
arthritis research, programs and services for those with arthritis.
According to the Arthritis Foundation, there are 46 million Americans with
doctor-diagnosed arthritis, including 300,000 kids. That's about 1 in 5 people
who are affected. That is why I am walking, so none of my grandchildren (or
yours) will have to suffer as I have for the past 25 years with this crippling
disease.
I am walking to help do something about arthritis and find a cure! With your
help, hopefully others won't have to suffer through having arthritis. I hope
that you'll support me in my fundraising efforts.
Many of you have offered to help me with the daily tasks I struggle with like
opening water bottles etc. That help is always appreciated because I don't
always ask for the help I need but I am asking for help now. Help the Arthritis
Foundation take steps toward finding new ways to prevent, control, and even cure
the more than 100 forms of arthritis and related diseases. You can take the
first step toward supporting others by helping me reach my goal, and it's an
easy way for you to become personally involved. Together, we can improve lives.
