On challenges much greater than just an icebucket



I shared an office space with Nanci Ryder a whole long time ago in West Hollywood. We were young and one of the incredibly cool things about her was that Michael J. Fox was her client so he hung out in our space a whole lot. But as you'll learn, she is all of that and so much more.

Over the years we lost touch with one another, except for the inevitable Facebook friendship. 

Yesterday I read this article. Nanci has been diagnosed with ALS. Thanks to the Ice Bucket Challenge, pretty much everyone on the planet Earth, including even Alabama, now knows about this insidious disease.

So many of the bright lights in my life have been shut down too soon. My heart breaks for Nanci. Please read this article and keep her in your prayers as she bravely faces the future.
