Deb Fabricatore lost her younger brother to ALS in 2014, and became involved in ALS advocacy. Indu Navar lost her husband in 2019 and immediately stepped up into action by building a nonprofit devoted to honoring her husband. Both women and the members of the Everything ALS team have vowed to create a legacy of treatment and cure for their loved ones lost to ALS by building a non-profit determined to tackle the mission of Care to Cure for those diagnosed with ALS.

ALS also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease is a progressive, fatal neuro degenerative disease. It discriminates against no – one It can affect young, old, any race, age, background. It has no treatment and no cure. Those stricken with the disease lose their ability to move, talk, eat while their muscles whither away, causing paralysis and being trapped in their own bodies. Indu Navar and Deb Fabricatore are two of the co-founders of EverythingALS. There are many other dedicated team members including Austen Eadie-Friedman. Everything ALS is Navar’s brainchild a non-profit bringing technological innovations and data science to support efforts–from care to cure– for people with ALS, by offering an open data platform for direct engagement with patients, caregivers, researchers drug companies and using citizen driven research. Their non-profit has grown rapidly in their two short years of existence.

As patient advocates EverythingALS hosts bi-monthly community talks that are designed to provide patients and caregivers with the support and information that they will need throughout their ALS journey. They garner top tier speakers from research, medicine, technology and advocacy to present and answer questions as people watch and participate from their homes. This information and ability to communicate with such high-level experts from the comfort of their homes has been invaluable to the ALS community.

The Everything ALS team believe technology will be the key enabler for the innovation to end ALS. They support efforts to find a cure and or treatment for ALS by creating a platform for direct engagement with patients, researchers and cutting-edge Cloud and AI technologies.
The diverse team is composed of patient advocates, students, nurses, physicians, biologists, ALS patients. They are committed to helping provide information to those who are affected by ALS.

One example of an Everything ALS projects is the Speech Research Study, which is the development of speech analysis of audio and facial metrics for biomarkers for early detection and diagnosis, clinical endpoints and better voice recognition tools for ALS. As of now ALS has no test, or biomarker to assist in diagnosis. Everything ALS shares their data and works in collaboration with various research institutions such as, MIT, Mass General Harvard, UT Austin and Google to name a few. They are also supporting researchers by providing multi-omics analysis with machine learning and big data to uncover ALS causes, subtypes, pathways and drug targets.

EverythingALS continues to recruit participants for this Speech Study of control subjects (those with no ALS diagnosis) and those diagnosed with ALS. They believe citizen driven research will help solve the puzzle that will lead to treatment and cure of ALS. The study takes about 10 minutes per week on your computer, pad, or phone at any time that is convenient for the participant.
They ask people interested to go to www.EverythingALS.org/research or email Deb@EverythingALS, or call Deb directly at 908-420-4751.

The Farzana Foundation
Who Farzana Niemann, Executive Director – The Farzana Foundation, Inc.
What Non-Profit Organization that Provides Funding for the Construction of Fresh Water Wells
Where Small Villages Surrounding Herat City, Afghanistan
When Since the Recent US Withdrawal from Afghanistan
Why
The events surrounding the US withdrawal from Afghanistan have been heartbreaking, and the unimaginable suffering experienced by the Afghani people as result of this has motivated us to help in any way we can. While much of the subsequent activity in the area has involved assisting people flee the country, we believe there is a significant need to provide assistance to the millions of those who have been forced to remain. Our mission is to provide funding for the construction of fresh water wells within the many small villages located throughout the country that do not enjoy this basic necessity of everyday life. Those of us who live in the more developed nations take fresh running water for granted. However, as hard as it may be to believe, many of the smaller villages in Afghanistan simply do not have ready access to fresh running water for normal everyday drinking and sanitary purposes.
Since 2017, Farzana’s family has provided funding for more than thirty-five of these fresh water wells in the area surrounding her birth city of Herat, located in the Northwestern part of the country near their border with Iran, where she spent the first nine years of her life. This has enabled families living in this area to enjoy this basic necessity more readily. While each of these wells provides water to literally hundreds of families, there is a great need to construct many more of them to satisfy the substantially greater requirements of these people. Those that do not have a fresh water well in their village must frequently travel great distances by foot and physically carry back very heavy containers of water for their families. An undertaking of this nature can cover distances of several miles and take many hours during the day, a great deal of time and effort that could otherwise be used for more productive endeavors in the further development of their society. As a mother of three, Farzana understands the difficulties and worry over children that a parent experiences under normal conditions, notwithstanding an untenable environment that may exist without basic necessities such as water.

The Japanese have a great liking for fresh fish.

But the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades.

So, to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.

The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring back the fish.

The longer it took them to bring back the fish, the stale they grew.

The fish were not fresh and the Japanese did not like the taste.

To solve this problem, fishing companies installed the freezers on their boats.

They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea.

Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.

However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish.

And they did not like the taste of frozen fish.

The frozen fish brought a lower price.

So, fishing companies installed fish tanks.

They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin.

After a little hashing around, fishes stopped moving.

They were tired and dull, but alive.

Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the difference.

Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste.

The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish.

The fishing industry faced an impending crisis!

But today, it has got over that crisis and has emerged as one of the most important trades in that country!

How did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem?

How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan ?

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks.

But now they add a small shark to each tank.

The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state.

The fish are challenged and hence are constantly on the move.

And they survive and arrive in a healthy state!

They command a higher price and are most sought-after.

The challenge they face keeps them fresh!

Humans are no different.

L. Ron Hubbard observed in the early 1950’s: “Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment.”

George Bernard Shaw said: ” Satisfaction is death!”

If you are steadily conquering challenges, you are happy. Your challenges keep you energized.

They keep you alive!

_Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!_

MORAL: If you look healthier, younger and energetic, then definitely there is a shark in your tank.

The Milk Pail Fresh Market began more than 30 years ago. John learned about farming growing up on his father’s Mecox potato farm while Evelyn got her first taste for apple growing from her parents’ apple orchard in Vermont. In 1969 they began a tiny retail store to market their vegetables and sell the milk produced by their cows. They named the store The Milk Pail, since milk was their main product at the time. The following spring they planted their apple orchard and have been perfecting and adding award-winning varieties ever since.
A Farm Family Tradition That Began in the 1640s
