ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord.
ALS usually strikes people between the ages of 40 and 70, and it is estimated there are more than 20,000 Americans who have the disease at any given time. For unknown reasons, military veterans are approximately twice as likely to be diagnosed with the disease as the general public.
On April 20, thousands will join the Walk to Defeat ALS in downtown Raleigh. Registration begins at 8:30am at Halifax Mall and the Walk to Defeat ALS starts at 10 am. ABC11 Together is a proud sponsor of the Walk to Defeat ALS
