Augi gives everyone hope and I think in our world today that is what we need. He makes those of us who haven't been affected by this disease appreciate life so much more. It makes us grateful for what we have been given and hopeful for a future that has cures.

Hi there, When I was sent this video I was apprehensive to watch it as I didn't want to be reminded of the devastation of this disease. I overcame my apprehension and now watch it every day and through my tears I realize that life goes on and that we must move forward with Augie in his quest for a cure. Thank you Augie.

More power to your elbow Augie! I lost my beloved husband Jamie with MND as it is known in the UK in 05, aged 48. He only had it for 18 months from dx. The day of the cure will be the best and worst of my life, - best it will be joyous to think that no more people will have to again suffer this cruelest of diseases and worst because it didnt come in time to save my soul mate.

This is definitely a beautiful video. I am passing it on to all my contacts and hopefully we can do our part. I do not know anyone with ALS, however, this video brought tears to my eyes and pain to my heart. There will be a time when all sicknesses will be cured and death will be gone. Don't give up hope!

Eric Lowen is a magnificent talent who I dearly respect and admire. What a sweet smile! I know another great talent with this dreaded disease...Steve Fowler. I'm praying for a cure, along with everyone else....

My mother-in-law Donna Bartosch was full of life, caring , and kindness. My children will never feel the "Huggy Lady's" touch again. ALS took her from us on Thanksgiving of 2006. Thank you for your positive work towards a cure.

My brother Joseph has ALS, yet he shines as a hero, even from his wheel chair.... he does public speaking, and sponsors, organizes and promotes fund raising activities for ALS, and serves as an inspiration to those that are auffering with this and other MDs.... He now is at his computer sending this video out to everyone he knows... it is a very moving video! Thanks to everyone who is making this happen!

My husband Ira lost his battle to ALS in May 2004. He was 56 years old. I want to see in my lifetime not 1 more person and family have to go through this. I pray for everyone with ALS and their families everyday. Marcia

My brother, Sam Ward has ALS. He has been living with this terrible disease for 10 years. He is a fighter. He can no longer talk he uses a computer, no loinger eats. He lives at home with or sister. He is a wonderful man. We pray everyday for him and others that have this terrible disease. All I can say is you must have the will with this disease to keep going. Good luck all.
