A support group isn't just about support for a specific disease. It is about families, friends, moral support and sharing memories.

Our support group would like to share our fun events with you as well.

Our Anniversary Party Celebration

Vocalist Scott Miller joined us as we began celebrating our anniversary.
 



The celebration continued when Cathie Hiltbrand hosted a swim party for our ALS family support group.






Some of us joined the Blooming's Believers Team in the ALSA Walk to D'Feet ALS in Canton, Ohio at Kent State Stark Campus.

Chad Blooming was our team Captain. We had the pleasure of walking with the Lou Gehrig look alike who is an extremely caring and generous volunteer.
 

 

 

Thanks to everyone for a great turnout!
