Over the weekend I was able to watch the Jerry Lewis Telethon and call in a donation to help find a cure. For anyone that watched the telethon you were able to understand what these people go through that have ALS and how incredibly strong and inspiring these individuals are. Making the little things that we bitch about seem so insignificant. Please realize how blessed you are and if you can in anyway give back to help someone to not think twice about it.
My good friend Ace Young supports Jerry's Kids and co-hosted Sunday night as well as performed a song, Redeem Me, from his album. He got to show off his new haircut which i love by the way. There were many great artists and acts that support the telethon each year. I hope that everyone marks their calendar to watch it next year.
Go buy his album at Amazon.com

You can also see him on Broadway in Grease starting Sept 9, 2008.

So, for those who don't know about MDA stands for Muscular Dystrophy Association. MDA.org is a voluntary health agency -- a dedicated partnership between scientists and concerned citizens aimed at conquering neuromuscular diseases that affect more than a million Americans.

Direct from their site on what they are about: http://www.mda.org/about.html

MDA combats neuromuscular diseases through programs of worldwide research, comprehensive medical and community services, and far-reaching professional and public health education. With national headquarters in Tucson, MDA has more than 200 offices across the country, sponsors 225 hospital-affiliated clinics and supports nearly 400 research projects around the world.
MDA supports more research on neuromuscular diseases than any other private-sector organization in the world. MDA scientists are in the forefront of gene therapy research and have uncovered the genetic defects responsible for several forms of muscular dystrophy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease), childhood spinal muscular atrophy, and several other neuromuscular conditions.
The Association's comprehensive service program includes medical examinations, flu shots, support groups, MDA summer camps for youngsters and assistance with purchase of wheelchairs and leg braces.
MDA was created in 1950 by a group of adults with muscular dystrophy, parents of children with muscular dystrophy, and a physician-scientist studying the disorder. Since its earliest days it has been energized by its number-one volunteer and national chairman, entertainer Jerry Lewis.
The Association's programs are funded almost entirely by individual private contributors. MDA seeks no government grants, United Way funding or fees from those it serves.
