As someone whose family has been hit very hard by ALS, I get all warm and fuzzy every time if see someone take the challenge. I lost my Mom, sister, Grandma, 3 uncles, an aunt and 2 cousins to it.

A month ago, very few people knew about the disease, and every time I mentioned it I had to explain what it was. Now everyone is talking about it. This ice bucket challenge is simply amazing!
