rockpile Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) We are walking in Canandaigua on May 19th, 2019 again this year and are asking for your help. It seems impossible to believe that I was first diagnosed with relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis (R/R MS) 25 years ago! Thanks to improved care and therapy, most of that time I was in remission. Instead of giving myself daily shots or getting monthly IV infusions. I now just take one pill a day. I have some limitations, and had to go on disability a couple years ago, but I have few complaints! Total sponsors in 2018 contributed $1,365 to help those with MS and find a cure. Since about 2003, we have raised over $20,000 for the National MS Society in Rochester and Canandaigua. A substantial amount of the contributions were from Two Bills Drive Please sponsor me if you can. At least go to the link provided and read my story! MS WALK sponsors click here Thank you! Rock ?

There is no such thing as a small donation unless your name is Jack. We walk no matter what the weather is! The larger walk in the city of Rochester is on May 5, and to be honest it got so large it was no longer fun! The walk in Canandaigua is smaller but it all goes to the same cause.
Just Jack Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Is it that time of year again, where I put you on ignore for three months?

In fact, make it four. I only saw this because it was on this thread (you were already being ignored). To those who do not know us, this is the way me and jack-less "communicate". I am thinking of filing for divorce if it gets better.
Just Jack Posted May 2, 2019 Posted May 2, 2019 Any updates on this? How much longer do I have to "forget" to donate?
Just Jack Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) It's pretty disappointing that someone who is just getting his hair cut has raised more than you at this point. Therefore, I'm ending my multi-year ban and supporting your cause. Edited May 5, 2019 by Just Jack
rockpile Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Thanks for the support, Jack. I am DELIGHTED that Jay broke $1,000 for St. Baldrick's. His efforts are to assist in fighting childhood leukemia. His "Honored" kids are Sweet Sally Sunshine and Naaman J (my grandson). I shaved my head yesterday and have sponsored Jay. With 14 days to go, team "Family Rocks" is up to $815, including your support. My individual goal of $1,000 is at $740. TWO WEEKS TO GO! Visit my page Family Rocks My heartfelt thanks to all.

It ALL goes to the charity, I never see it. It will hurt but I will be doing the 5K Walk, as my thanks for your generosity. FOUR days to the walk, and you all have sponsored me for $1,230!

rockpile Posted May 20, 2019 Author Posted May 20, 2019 Thanks to TBD / TSW and my other friends and family. You sponsored me for a total of $1,555 this year. It was HOT - 80 degrees here - but that sure beat the 40 degree days we have been having. Photo album will be linked later for Jack. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 2
rockpile Posted May 20, 2019 Author Posted May 20, 2019 There's the group photo! For those who do not know me, I am the old dude with the walking stick. My wife is the lovely lady in the orange t-shirt.
rockpile Posted May 20, 2019 Author Posted May 20, 2019 This was not even all of our crew. At least six others were not here yet.
