Thanks for promoting the MS Walks. Since our founding 2 years ago my chapter has participated in the MS Walks here in L.A. I've encouraged the chapter to make this one of our annual philanthropy events as my brother is suffering from the form of MS that will eventually take his life. Also, not many of my sisters know this yet but my blood sister has also just been diagnosed with MS but at least its a mild form so far.
For those living in or near Los Angeles the MS Walks this year are on the weekend of April 12 & 13. The big Los Angeles Walk at the LA Coliseum and through USC (if it's like last year) is actually on April 13. You can already register for the site at

If anyone would like to sponsor me they can visit the online donation page that MS has set up for me at
