On Thursday May 24th I’m taking part in the Hurst/Euless/Bedford MDA Lock-Up 24th May 2012 MDA Lockup to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) and raise $1600 to send 2 children to the MDA Summer Camp. The MDA is a non-profit health agency dedicated to curing 43 different neuromuscular diseases under the muscular dystropy umbrella by funding worldwide research. It provides 6 medical clinics in the DFW Metroplex and assists people living with muscular dystrophy with equipment loans and repairs, support groups, summer camps, flu shots and education. Please help me raise my bail so that I can get back to caring for the pets of Protecting Max Pet Sitting!
