: Where does Joe live? Maybe I can write a story. : : : Dear Friend of Joe Collins, : : : As many of us know, Joe Collins (the voice of "Shadow Traffic" on WBBM News Radio 780) has been battling the effects of Muscular Dystrophy (MD), a genetic disorder that causes weakness in the muscles that allow the body to move. While often associated with children, it is not uncommon for the disease to attack older adults. People with this disease gradually lose their ability to do most of the things that we take for granted, such as walking, standing, or sitting up. All types of Muscular Dystrophy have one common problem and that is the progressive weakness and wasting of the body's muscles . . . and, there is no cure. : : : Joe has brought a special brightness to our lives through his humor, compassion and joy of living. As he fights his battle, let's support him and celebrate our friendship. Join the Beverly Theatre Guild in showing our support for a good friend. : : : Joe's in a jam --- Our friend Joe is going through a tough time as everyday activities are getting more difficult. Cooking, cleaning, driving -- all those things we do regularly without much thought -- are daily challenges for Joe. We all want to see him continue actively among us. All proceeds of our "Show for Joe" gala will go directly to Joe to use as he needs to help his quality of life. : : : Sincerely, : : : Cheryl Cooper, Chair : : : "Show for Joe" Fundraiser
