At the end of September Jeff and I will be participating in Waves to Wine, a two-day bike tour from San Francisco to the Napa valley to raise funds for the National Multiple Sclerosis society. He will bike; I will volunteer since the idea of my biking ~150 miles is laughable.
Multiple Sclerosis is an important issue for Jeff, since one of his uncles suffered from it for many years and finally died of it last year. I never got to meet this uncle, and I wish I had. It must take amazing strength of character to withstand a disease when you know you will never recover.
The point of this exercise, of course, is to raise money for research and for programs to support people who are currently suffering from MS. I have a personal donation page, and so does Jeff. If you can sponsor us with even a small donation, we would appreciate it.
