My Personal Fundraising Page

Tricia K Byerly, aka Gammie to the generation that counts, embodied the best example of "Living Her Best Life" with 2 children and 5 grandchildren.  Taken too early in 2022 at the age of 55, TK left her legacy firmly secure by the example she lived as a wife, mother, Gammie, daughter, sister and friend.  Taken the day after her 55th birthday, her family celebrates her birthday annually by doing TK's favorite thing...eating chocolate.  Of course she also loved hiking and yoga and sailing, but doesn't' eating chocolate sound more inclusive and rewarding?  Join Team Tricia as we celebrate her life and raise awareness of the research and support needed in the CJD community.  See you in Arlington!!

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.
