Help Jeremy Fight ALS
Thank you for taking the time to read about this fundraiser.
If you know Jeremy Stork, you know he is a steadfast friend to many – the sort of giving, kind person you can’t say a negative thing about. Unfortunately, Jeremy was recently diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a motor neuron disease also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. ALS causes the death of neurons that control voluntary muscle movement throughout the body.
There are no conventional medical options for Jeremy, but promising alternative options that have helped many to halt and even reverse the progression of this disease do exist. However, these options are not covered by insurance and many are not readily available.
ALS is a devastating disease and it moves quickly. Jeremy’s disease has progressed in the past couple of months and he experiences difficulty with everyday functions requiring dexterity and mobility. But Jeremy is also brave and a fighter and is determined to face this challenge head on.
The goal of this campaign is to support Jeremy and his partner of nearly 25 years, Tara Sheehan, by helping to cover the out-of-pocket costs of doctor’s appointments, treatments, travel expenses, medications and supplements, and home modifications needed to accommodate Jeremy’s loss of muscle movement.
Please consider contributing in any way you can, no matter the amount. It is not easy for someone who is a true giver to ask for help, but this is why this platform is here. In times like this, when life gives someone more than what is bearable alone, we - all the family and friends who absolutely adore Jeremy and Tara - can be there to help relieve some of the burden.
Thank you for helping to lighten this load.
