Moving Together

I am captaining our "Go For Gloria" Walk Ms team again this year in honor of my Mom, Gloria Hastings.  She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis about three years ago.  Since being diagnosed my mom has taken medicine to help keep the MS symptoms controlled.  Currently, she is taking Copaxone nightly by injections.  She also takes other medications which help manage her symptoms of MS.

The Emporia MS Walk will be held on April 20th this year.  We have had several people register online and join our team already.  I welcome anyone else who would like to show your support for my mom to join our team.  Help us promote MS awareness by participating with us!  Click on the following link and you will be directed to our "Go For Gloria" team page.  Once there click on the orange tab on the right side of your screen that says "JOIN OUR TEAM".    "GO FOR GLORIA" TEAM PAGE link

MS interrupts the flow of information from the brain to the body and stops people from moving. Every hour in the United States, someone is newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system. Symptoms vary from person to person. One person may experience fatigue and numbness, while another may experience dizziness and have loss of balance.  Local Walk MS events are connecting communities to end MS forever. This event raises critical funds to support local programs and cutting-edge research. Your participation puts us closer to realizing our promise to STOP MS in its tracks, RESTORE lost function and END MS forever. Ending MS means no one will receive an MS diagnosis again. Every step counts. Every dollar helps. Every connection matters.

If you cannot join us the day of the walk, please make a donation! Any amount, great or small, helps make a difference in the lives of people living with MS.  Click on the following link and you will be directed to our "Go For Gloria" team page.  Once there click on the orange tab on the right side of your screen that says "DONATE TO GO FOR GLORIA"  "GO FOR GLORIA" TEAM PAGE link
