This week during all lunches students and staff will have the opportunity to support people battling ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.  ALS is a terminal disease with devastating effects.  Currently, there are 73 people in the state of NH battling this disease.  The cost to support one person with this disease for one year is an astounding $300,000.

Here is how you can help:

Purchase a wristband during lunch for $1 to show your support. 

Send a “Touch-a-Heart” card to someone in the building to let them know you appreciate them.

Buy a raffle ticket for one of two amazing gift card raffle baskets. 

All proceeds go to the ALS Northern New England Chapter.

    My husband who had been diagnosed with Bulbar ALS disease for 2 years at the age of 63 had all his symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from naturalherbscentre. com after undergoing their ALS/MND natural protocol, he no longer requires a feeding tube. God Bless all Lou Gehrig’s disease Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.

    My first symptoms of ALS occurred in 2014, but was diagnosed in 2016. I had severe symptoms ranging from shortness of breath, balance problems, couldn’t walk without a walker or a power chair, i had difficulty swallowing and fatigue. I was given medications which helped but only for a short burst of time, then I decided to try alternative measures and began on ALS Formula treatment from Tree of Life Health clinic. It has made a tremendous difference for me (Visit w w w. treeoflifeherbalclinic .com ). I had improved walking balance, increased appetite, muscle strength, improved eyesight and others. ]
