An annoying little twitch in my left thumb in 2008 that traveled up my hand sent me to physicians to discover I had Parkinson's disease. Those of you who know me are probably as startled as I was. After some tears, and long talks with very supportive family, friends and insight from the michael j. fox foundation; as a daughter, mother, friend, flight attendant and ballet teacher, I'm learning the grace of shaking! Within every dark cloud there's a silver lining ~ well mine is the inspiration to convert Budding Ballerinas from an in-studio program to an E-learning program called Possibilties for all. Possibilties for all will E-nable any girl with any physical, emotional or economic disability ~ anytime, anywhere, right from her home, school, hospital or wherever ~ with the touch of her little fingertips ~ to gracefully become a ballerina-artist right from her computer! You can lay the floorework right here by leaping to donate & become a Budding Ballerinas Sponsor, Angel or Friend of the Arts ! Upon your request we will donate half of your donation to michaeljfox.org and add you to the micel j. fox foundationTEAMFOX honor roll ! Your donation will be helping to speed the discovery of life-changing treatments and, ultimately, a cure to the nearly five million people worldwide living with Parkinson's disease. Your donation will make me shake with excitement ... that's a good thing! I thank each and every one of you ahead of time, and to those already involved in Budding Ballerinas and my life I thank-you for creating something so solid for this hope to be created! Together we can gracefully leap across the finish line in the race for a cure! |
