Bill's ALS Walk Page
Why I walk
Thank you for helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS, like my good friend and former co-worker Gene Pino, and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis, yet this is the 14th year that we are walking with Gene! ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
