My personal message:

Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.

Please take the time to check out some information on Huntington's Disease. This is a very serious disease that doesn't get much attention. It is very close to me because my mother is going through it and it runs in my family. It's been a very emotional time for me and dealing with how this disease can affect someone's life. I watched my mom go from a loving, sweet woman to someone I barely recongnize and it breaks my heart. I have only seen my mom twice in the past 3 years due to the psychological mess this illness makes. When she sees me this look of fear comes across her face that it breaks my heart. I decided I want to do something about it....It's a way I can do something for her, even if I can't be with her. I love and miss my mother very much and if this is the little part I can do to stomp out this disease then by golly, BRING IT ON!!!

Thank you so much for your support,

Courtney
