Help Gibby’s Finest end ALS
On June 22, Bob's team Gibby's Finest will be participating in their first ALS Canada Walk to End ALS. Help Gibby's Finest raise awareness so that other families do not have to hear this diagnosis!
From the onset of symptoms to the day of diagnosis in Dec 2023 was a long road. Going from one doctor and specialist to another, so many diagnostic tests, searching the web for information, and convincing doctors that there truly is something wrong is exhausting. Finally, we got our answer ... You have ALS, I'm sorry. The silence that follows is unbearable. But the hardest part is having to tell your family and friends.
It has not been easy but Bob continues to look at life through his Rose Coloured Glasses. With the support and love of our family and friends we are trying to make a difference and break that silence so that other families can have hope for a treatment and a cure. Lets make ALS a thing of the past.
Please consider supporting our team and donating towards this important cause.
Your support will help to:
- Further scientific progress by investing in the ALS Canada Research Program, which funds promising ALS research. The ALS Canada Research Program is the only national dedicated source of funding for ALS research across Canada. This program provides peer-reviewed grants to researchers whose work has the greatest potential to advance the field of ALS. There’s been more progress made in ALS research in the last five years than over the last century – we need to keep building on this momentum.
- Create a better day-to-day reality for people and families living with ALS by providing community-based support throughout Ontario – like home visits and support groups – as well as necessary medical equipment like hospital beds, wheelchairs, stairlifts and other items that increase safety in the home, at no cost to those who need them.
Join Team Gibby's Finest in making a difference. Please consider donating to our team fundraising page as we work toward a world free of ALS.
Your support is needed now more than ever – we are stronger together!
