We were honored to have Eric Lowen, along with a representative of the ALS Lou Gehrig's Disease Association, speak to our club this past week. Eric is a musician who has written songs for Pat Benetar and others, as well as writing, performing, and producing more than 10 CD's.
Eric was diagnosed with ALS several years ago, and has already beat the odds by living this long. The disease has caused him to lose control of his muscles, and even trying to speak for periods of time can be difficult. John Ondrasik, best known from the band Five For Fighting, has set up a special site where you can view a short video about Eric and his life. Every time the video is viewed, $1 is donated to reasearch for a cure for ALS. Click here to view the video and help make a difference in the lives of so many people.
