I happen to know Allie personally, also her brother Aaron who is affected by the same disease as Allie.  I am also honored to know their mother Sue, one of the most couregoius and most wonderful woman I have ever met.
When I first met Allie about 6 months ago I didn’t notice anything unusual. I just taught of her as a beautiful young girl with much talent for art and a very kind personality. Then  I learned of her condition and that it’s getting harder for her every day, even a simple things like walking and standing up. I heard from  her parents the story about how they found out about their kids disease and how that changed their lifes forever. Their courage and faith give hope and comfort to many others.
