The Blackwell Family

Donation protected
I'm asking for your help to make a difference in my friends husband, Greg and his family's lives. He has been diagnosed with a rare disease (as few as 15,000 to 50,000 Americans) called MSA at the age of 46. Multiple System Atrophy is a neurodegenerative disorder that effects your autonomic nervous system (ex. breathing, blood pressure, digestion, etc.) and movement. Unfortunately, it results in a progressive loss of function that is rapid over the course of 5-10 years.
As you can imagine, this diagnosis is very overwhelming for one family to handle on their own. He has medical expenses mounting that are ongoing, as well as medical equipment and house modifications that will be needed to meet his daily needs. I can't take away the physical pain or emotional stress this disorder causes him and his family; but with your help, I hope to take away their financial worries. We all together can give him comfort for the time he has while he battles this insidious disease. Every amount helps and we thank you so much for your consideration.

Greg and his wife have 3 Beautiful girls age(s) 11-17 and Greg has two beautiful children from a previous marriage age(s) 22-27.  His recent diagnosis was somewhat of a relief because Greg has been in and out of hospital and nursing facilities over the past 4 years, however, learning the outcome of the disease has been devestating.

Please stay tuned for more information on how you can help this beautiful family and hear more about Greg.
