Marathons For Awareness

from Be The Good Hosted by Christy McCaffrey

Greg Cohen is one of the most inspiring people I know. I have known Greg for about 2 years now as we have worked together on several projects for my non profit Project Scleroderma. Greg suffers from the autoimmune disease, Scleroderma, which is a disease I lost my own mom to 11 years ago. Scleroderma literally means “hard skin”, it causes a hardening of the connective tissue. Although the skin hardening is a major issue for many patients, scleroderma can also affect internal organs with life threatening consequences. This disease affects each patient differently but can be very debilitating. Which is why what Greg is doing is incredible. He is running marathons to raise awareness for the cause and to support scleroderma research. He has become an incredible example of strength and hope for all who suffer from this disease and he is here to talk with us today about a year long documentary project we have been working on together. Greg is working tirelessly to not only to raise awareness but also to encourage support of the life saving research that is being done. Please take some time to learn more about Greg's fundraiser here. And if you are able to, please considering making a donation to help Greg reach his fundraising goal! Donate here. Thank you!
