SMA AWARENESS MONTH

August is SMA Awareness Month

I have wanted to post sooner, but I just didn’t know what to post about... I am so new to a lot of the SMA world, and I don’t keep up with SMA news like I would like to... I actually just found out Friday about SMA Awareness Month... So I have been searching my mind trying to think of a way I could help spread awareness... and since the internet seems to be my best friend somedays, I figured it was my best bet, so then it was the what am I going to share?
And this morning on my normal blog reading (of other SMA patients and parents) I stumbled across this and I just thought it was a really great idea...
It just seemed perfect for me... (You know how I love to shop)



I have a really great fundraiser to share with you that benefits FSMA (which, by the way, raised $5.1 Million over the last year…and dedicated over 80% directly to research!) It is called “SHOP FOR A CAUSE” and FSMA has teamed up with MACY’S for this event. It is Saturday, September 20, 2008.
