Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease with no known cause or cure. It is a chronic, often disabling disease of the central nervous system. Multiple sclerosis interrupts the flow of information from the brain to the body and stops people from moving. So once a year there's a big to do w/a walk and all the "trimmings." Our motto, is we walk because they can't. The walk is roughly 5K (a little over 3 miles). We've done it every year since we've been in San Diego, except last year because Tam decided he had to go off and play in the Sand Box.
The last entry was a tribute to my uncle who passed from MS. Every year we walk for two of our family members. This year we honored them and placed their names on the Wall of Hope & "carried" them on our back.
Let the pictures speak for themselves:
