Strides for Jim

Join us for a walk/run in honor of my husband Jim, who passed away in 2021 after a brief battle with CJD. Currently this devastating disease has no cure. CJD is a rapid spreading prion disease. I found it very difficult for doctors to diagnose prion diseases. From his very first symptom of dizziness, until his passing, was a short five months. It's my hope that the medical society will learn and correctly diagnose CJD quickly, so the families left behind can prepare for their loved one's fate. 
 

All registered participants who register by August will receive a commemorative t-shirt. 
 

Thank you, and we hope to see you there.

About Strides for CJD

Strides for CJD is an annual walk/run to raise awareness of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. Through this event, anyone -- anywhere -- can pay tribute to their loved ones and raise funds for the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.

Funds raised support our programs including:

  • Our 24/7 helpline, support groups, conference, and other family programs throughout the year.
  • Research grants to help scientists make important discoveries and bring us closer to a cure.
  • Medical education to help raise awareness and understanding of prion disease.
