Since the March of Dimes Walkathon isn’t happening this year (though as Chak reminded me, my 27-year streak isn’t affected if the event doesn’t take place), I was hoping to move our support over to Charcot-Marie-Tooth, a rare degenerative neurological disease with which my son’s girlfriend was. They’re doing a bike ride at the end of this month to raise awareness and money for research.
(I promised I wouldn’t post the long version of this more than once, so it’s here)
Almost immediately, support started coming in from CIDU visitors, and we’re all very grateful.
(Disclaimer: We are not donating money for Mary Cate’s ride: our son is part of the same team, of course, and nobody’s visiting his page: it’s just sitting there like Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree, and it’s really sad)
A couple of people have reported having trouble making donations online. Please let me know if you do, and maybe I can help.
Huh? SingaporeBill is confused. Where are we supposed to put the money? With Mary Cate or Aaron?
The link goes to Mary Cate’s page. I just felt sorry for my boy.
Sorry if I added confusion to the mix.
This was the part that had me confused:
“Disclaimer: We are not donating money for Mary Cate’s ride”
In the end, I didn’t want to be on a losing team, so I joined Mary Cate.
