Walking for a Cure

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to pass this information along to all of my readers. A friend of mine was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis last year, and while it has been determined that she does not yet have MS, she may still develop it one day. Approximately 400,000 Americans have MS and 200 people are diagnosed with it every week. 2.5 Million people worldwide are affected by this disease.

On Saturday April 9, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has organized a walk in Burlington to raise funds for MS research. Many of my friends are walking on their own team (Multiple bunnieS) to raise money for the cause. Research is getting closer to the cure every day and it is so important to fund this research. While I am unable to walk in the event, I wanted to raise awareness about it and to give everyone the opportunity to donate to the team and to research.

If you are interested in donating to the team, you can do so here: http://bit.ly/ihmrNG

Thanks for reading, and for being fabulous!
