This week on Aging in Portland, I interviewed Emily-Rose Wiitala, Special Events Director of the ALS Association of Oregon and SW Washington. We discussed the upcoming Walk to Strikeout ALS (a.k.a. Lou Gehrig's Disease).

To help fight ALS (a.k.a. Lou Gehrig's Disease), the ALS Association has organized several walks across the state. Portland's walk is scheduled for Sunday, September 29th. Emily-Rose has helped organize other walks all over Oregon and Washington. She and joins us today to explain how you or your team can make a difference in the lives of those living with this devastating disease, by participating in one of those walks. Don't miss this show!
