Thank You one and all for coming to my page. I so appreciate your time and support. The Virtual 6 Challenge is: 6 Miles in 6 Days to Help End Lupus! I am dedicating this challenge in memory of my mom, Evelyn Ditzig, who passed away 30 years ago, March 1992, from kidney complications due to Lupus.
Please, join me and support the mission of the Lupus Foundation of America! My goal is to raise critical funds for the estimated 1.5 million people living with lupus in the United States. Your donation will help me reach my personal fundraising goal and support the Foundation's efforts to improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus!
Did you know?
- Lupus is a complex disease that is hard to define. It strikes without warning, affects each person differently, and has no known causes or cure.
- While lupus mainly affects women between the ages of 15-44, men and children are not spared.
- Lupus symptoms can be severe and highly unpredictable and can damage any organ or tissue, from the skin or joints to the heart or kidneys.
- Only one drug has ever been developed and approved by the US Food and Drug Administration specifically to treat lupus.
I greatly appreciate your support through this challenge and throughout the year. Bill and I feel so blessed to have each of you in our lives - family & friends mean the world to us! Let's Get This Done...Here's to YOU, MOM!!
***I truly feel Evelyn aka Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma, Aunt is looking down & smiling upon us - We Love you, Mom and this one is for YOU!! :)
