ALS Guardian Angels Foundation

This past weekend, Jim and I had the great pleasure of meeting Stu Millheiser. Stu is the founder of the ALS Guardian Angels Foundation. This foundation is committed to helping families effected by ALS. 

"Most ALS related organizations are dedicated to finding a cure. Until then, ALS patients need help living. The ALS Guardian Angels Foundation is dedicated to helping patients and their families live with ALS while maintaining the best quality of life possible."

We, along with a group of our family and friends, attended the 2nd Annual ALS Guardian Angels walk on September 21st. Over $50,000 was raised to support Stu's cause, and we were so happy to be a part of it.  You can find more information about the foundation on their website at ALS Guardian Angels.

On October 5th, our daughter Corie, along with two friends, are putting on a fundraiser called Race for Racobs.  The event starts at Capistrano Valley High School in Mission Viejo at 9:00am, and lasts until approximately 2:30pm.  You can find more information at their website:  http://race4racobs.eventbrite.com/

Soon, Jim and I will be in Carmel, Ca, enjoying a two night getaway, courtesy of the Ellen Degeneres Show!  We are beyond excited!  Jim will be enjoying a much needed 3 days of relaxation, getting mentally and physically prepared for his stem cell treatment. 

Looking forward to updating you all on how the treatment goes.  Until then, stay well, and remember to count your blessings!  xo
