Hi,

Please visit www.FAdvertise.com, and consider taking an ad. Its a very inexpensive way to get advertising and all the money collected will go to Friedreichs Ataxia Research.

We have two sons with Freidreichs Ataxia and would like more than anything to see a cure or a method of arresting their condition. Both of the boys are in wheelchairs now and are no longer able to walk. The condition continues to debilitate their spines, internal organs, fine and gross motor coordination and speech.

Friedreichs ataxia (FRDA) is a rare, genetic, neurodegenerative, multi-system, life-shortening disorder. About one in 50,000 people in the United States have Friedreichs ataxia. Onset of symptoms is usually between the ages of 5 and 15, sometimes even earlier and sometimes significantly later.

Symtoms associated with Friedreichs include:muscle weakness and loss of coordination (ataxia) in the arms and legs, vision impairment, hearing loss, and slurred speech. aggressive scoliosis (curvature of the spine)
diabetes mellitus or carbohydrate intolerance, a serious heart condition (enlarged heart — hypertrophic cardiomyopathy)


These symptoms reflect the death of cells in certain parts of the nervous system. The mental capabilities of people coping with Friedreich ataxia, however, remain completely intact. For most, progressive loss of muscle strength and control leads to motor incapacitation and the full-time use of a wheelchair by the late teens or early twenties. Many require surgery for their scoliosis. There are currently no treatments or cures.

The course of the disorder is progressive. Most young people diagnosed with FRDA require mobility aids such as a cane, walker, or wheelchair by their teens or early 20s.

Research is making great strides - but research requires funding, and that is our goal - to raise money for addtional research.

So, please consider taking out an ad - its a inexpensive fun way to see your site or banner on top and help fund research.

Thanks,
