Well, I haven't had much time to blog lately. Or even think about ataxia stuff. I've had a few things going on outside this life that have taken my mind of it. I don't care to go into it, but that's my reasoning.
Over the Labor Day weekend I took part in a tournament for a board game I play. This game is actually played all over the world and this tournament is considered the United States major. Over 70+ players took part in the tourney. They came to the Chicagoland Area from all over. Sweden, Spain, Canada, and multiple states were represented. The reason I say all this is because this group of awesome people choose a charity or organization to donate raffle proceeds to. This year they chose the National Ataxia Foundation. The raffle raised $1,280 for the NAF.
I can't express how proud I am of our incredible group of people. When they told me they were going to give to the NAF, when they told me the amount, when the donation went through, even as I'm typing this, the joy and appreciation I feel makes my eyes well up.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to all those who donated.
