Our personal message:

Dear Friends and Family,

We need your help.  Many of you know that Huntington’s Disease has impacted our family. Our son, Scott (age 38) was diagnosed with the debilitating disease in 2006. Last year, our beautiful grandson, Matthew passed away from complications of Juvenile Huntington’s Disease.  This year will be the fourth year for us to participate in the annual Huntington’s Disease Team Hope Walk for a Cure on Saturday, September 26, 2009 on the campus of UC Irvine. This annual event is held to provide awareness, education and funds for HD research to find a CURE for this devastating disease!
 
We are asking you to support our fundraising efforts today.  Any amount you can give (it is tax-deductible) will bring us closer to the overall HD Team Hope Walk for a Cure fundraising goal of $100,000.  Through the research of HDSA, it will make a cure a close reality and create a better life for Scott and others who are currently suffering from the disease.  Our personal fundraising goal is $10,000.00. 
 
You can donate now through our website or with a personal check.   Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure or you may also donate with a personal check.  Please make checks payable to the “Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA)” and mail it to us at 15 Bronco Drive, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA  90275 by Fri., Sept. 18.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at ejnart@cox.net. 

The funds collected through the HDSA Team Hope Walk for a Cure and our site will be directed to HD research to find a cure.  Thank you for your support.
 
With love and gratitude, 
E.J. and Art Garner
 
 
Huntington's Disease is an inherited, progressively degenerative brain disease that results in a loss of mental faculties and physical control.  HD affects adults between 30 and 50, but is increasing in its juvenile form, Juvenile HD, in children as young as one year old.  HD affects a person's ability to think, speak, and walk.  Ultimately, the weakened person succumbs to death.  Presently, there is no effective treatment or cure. (http://www.hdsaoc.org/whatishd.htm)
