 Today, June 21, is officially the first day of summer and the longest day of the year. Amazingly, June 21 is also listed as National Smoothie Day and International T-Shirt Day!
But far more important is that June 21 is ALS Awareness Day and National Indigenous Peoples Day (formerly National Aboriginal Day) for celebrating the cultures, languages and heritage of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities, nations and individuals across Canada. I wish I could count more Indigenous people in my list of friends. Something I need to work on. In the meantime, I will fix on today being ALS Awareness Day. For those of you who visit this blog from time to time, you’ll know that I have made it my calling to support Canadian and U.S. efforts to find a cure for this terrible disease. So, let me remind you that you can join me in making a contribution to the Canadian and U.S. efforts to end ALS, as follows: Canada: https://donate.als.ca/page/116715/donate/1 U.S.: https://www.als.net/donate/?soc=blog509 Thanks.
