This is our Why \u2013 our oldest granddaughter Avery has Frederich\u2019s Ataxia, a very rare disease. We regularly give to FARA, the Frederich\u2019s Ataxia Research Alliance, who help promote medical studies and trials. No cure yet, but we\u2019re praying.<\/h2>\n

Friedreich\u2019s Ataxia (FA) is a genetic, progressive neuromuscular disease. People with FA experience issues with balance and coordination of movement that lead to life-altering loss of mobility. Avery no longer uses the walker pictured here, she already has to use a wheelchair.<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/h2>\n

Other symptoms can include fatigue, serious heart conditions, scoliosis, and diabetes. FA is life-shortening and affects an estimated 5,000 individuals in the United States and 15,000 worldwide.\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
