Ken Patterson reaches Washington D.C.
Rolling Over ALS


Ken Patterson Sr. has ALS. He is riding in a motorized wheelchair from Florida to Washington, D.C. This video is from YouTube. There is news clip from WFMY Channel 2, located in North Carolina,

new youtube video of ken in dc

An incredible couple, Ken & Glenda Patterson, travelled from Orlando to Washington, DC by wheelchair to spread awareness about ALS. I hope no one ever has to do this again because it is a treacherous and exhausting experience for anyone, nevermind the fact that he is suffering with ALS. If you see this video, do something. Make a donation to ALSTDI to help find a cure. If you don't have money, send them a thank you at rolloverals.org because they didn't do this for themselves.
