Thank you for visiting the Rasmussen Team Page!  I hope that you will join me and walk or contribute to our team!

This year, I am again participating in The Michael J. Fox Foundation's (MJFF) Los Angeles Run/Walk in honor of my beloved husband Carroll "Dean" Rasmussen who has been straddled with Parkinson's Disease for 18 years.  He is such a trouper as you know but now that he is wheelchair bound, life is getting more challenging for him.

More than 6 million people worldwide are living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) — a chronic neurodegenerative disorder. There is no known cure for Parkinson’s disease. As the world’s largest nonprofit funder of PD research, MJFF is working to change this. MJFF is dedicated to finding a cure for Parkinson's disease through an aggressively funded research agenda and to ensuring the development of improved therapies for those living with Parkinson's today.

Your gift will make a real difference: 100 percent of the Los Angeles Run/Walk proceeds will go directly to The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s high-impact research programs.

Please Help me move a cure for Parkinson's disease over the finish line by making a donation today.

Thank you for your support!
