Local Family Raises
Awareness For Angelman Syndrome
Pleasant Hill,
Iowa, August 22, 2012 – The
first Jaime Berkley Memorial Golf tournament, Sept. 23, at Toad Valley Golf
Course in Pleasant Hill, will benefit the Foundation for Angelman Syndrome
Therapeutics (FAST) Open
registration begins at 7:30 a.m. and there will be a shotgun start at 9 a.m.
Five
years ago, at the age of seven, Jamie Berkley lost her battle with Angelman
Syndrome. Like most individuals with Angelman Syndrome, Jamie brought joy and
happiness to everyone she met and left a legacy of love and laughter. Parents,
Jason and Cindy Berkley, have dedicated their lives to bringing awareness to
this disorder and honoring their child’s memory with this event.
“We
chose FAST because their goal is to bring practical treatments into current
medical practices as soon as possible,” said the Berkleys. “FAST is a non-profit organization, which is
100 percent staffed by volunteers who either have children with Angelman
Syndrome or have close relations to the community. All proceeds they raise go
directly into research and finding ways to better the lives of families who are
afflicted by Angelman Syndrome. They are already making huge advances in
research and have recently funded the first-ever human clinical trial for a
potential treatment for Angelman Syndrome. The money at our fundraiser is fed
directly back into research and awareness. This is why we chose FAST.”
“We
are extremely honored to be chosen as the Berkley fundraising beneficiary,”
said Paula Evans, Founder and Chairperson. “Our hearts are always heavy over a
loss of a child. We strive to bring more
awareness and research to finding a cure for Angelman Syndrome so families will
never feel the painful loss of a child to this disorder. FAST is dedicated to
its community and works endlessly to cure Angelman Syndrome and related
disorders through the funding of an aggressive research agenda, education, and
advocacy.”

It was during my research on HIV/Herpes that I stumbled upon the Hiv/Herpes information; information which is quite easy to find when doing a search for STD on google. I was into conspiracy at the time and thought of HIV/Herpes Cured' being a conspiracy was something ignorant though,I found it pretty interesting about herbal medicine. I asked questions about the Herbal cure's on official HIV/Herpes websites and I was banned for doing so by moderators who told me that I was parroting Hiv/Herpes propaganda. This reinforced my belief that there is a cure for Hiv/Herpes Then i found a lady from germany name Achima Abelard Dr Itua Cure her Hiv so I send him a mail about my situation then talk more about it and send me his herbal medicine I drank for two weeks.And today I'm Cured no Hiv/Herpes in my life,I searched for Hiv/Herpes groups to attempt to make contact with people in order to learn more about Hiv/Herpes Herbal Cure I believed at this time that you with the same disease this information is helpful to you and I wanted to do the best I could to spread this information in the hopes of helping other people.That Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's,Alzheimer’s disease,Bechet’s disease,Crohn’s disease,Cushing’s disease,Heart failure,Multiple Sclerosis,Hypertension,Colo_Rectal Cancer,Lyme Disease,Blood Cancer,Brain Cancer,Breast Cancer,Lung Cancer,Kidney Cancer,Love Spell,psoriasis,Lottery Spell,disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Infertility,Tach Disease ,Epilepsy ,Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Autism,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma, (measles, tetanus, whooping cough, tuberculosis, polio and diphtheria)Allergic diseases.Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,siva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone ToxicitySyndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans ProgresS sclerosis,Seizures,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic diseases.Hiv_ Aids,Herpe ,Copd,Glaucoma., Cataracts,Macular degeneration,Cardiovascular disease,Lung disease.Enlarged prostate,Osteoporosis.
