-EXTREMELY MILD AVENGERS SPOILERS-
UGH I KNOW RIGHT? I’m holding out hope it’ll happen in the next film. But yeah, I was totally sitting there waiting for that too, and then it didn’t happen, grrr.
This!
If you are reading this because the shirt designs pictured above made your inner fangirl scream, then I’m assuming you know who Benedict Cumberbatch is.
If you are a fangirl and know who Benedict Cumberbatch is, then you have probably seen the film Hawking.
If you are a fangirl, know who Benedict Cumberbatch is and have watched his film Hawking, then you know that just watching an actor portraying a motor neuron disease (ALS) is hard.
Now picture witnessing the disease ravage a real victim, a victim you love and care for. (Yes, yes. I know Cumberbitches. You love and care for Benedict. That has already been established). Picture yourself standing helplessly by as you wait for the monster to take it’s victim completely, knowing that no matter what you do…there is nothing you can do.
I’ve been there. Two times; my great-grandmother and grandma.
And if we can’t find a cure soon, then I’ll be there again with my mother.
And if we don’t find a cure after that, it will be me.
Every day, 30,000 individuals are diagnosed with ALS, or Lou Gherig’s Disease.
To read about what the disease does to your body click here. If you’re more of a visual person, watch this PSA here. In fact, I urge you to watch the PSA first before you continue reading.
We need to find a cure.
We have to.
And I need your help.
There are no treatments for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Zip. Noda. Zilch.
No cure.
Just a death sentence of three to five years.
I’ve raised over $5,000 the past few years for the ALS Association, but this year I’m aiming higher and I need you, my fellow fandom, to help me.
That’s where the T-shirts come in.
In an effort to raise awareness and (maybe) money, I’m hosting my first give-away here.
To win a T-shirt, it’s really quite simple.
All you have to do is donate $1 to my Walk to Defeat ALS team. $1 gets you entered in to the drawing once. $2, twice and so on and so forth. Once you have also reblogged this post, you’re in!
Not only will you be helping yourself win a chance to look stylish, you are also helping others.
However, if you choose not to donate it still means just as much to me if you reblog this post to help me raise awareness about ALS.
The drawing will take place once I hit $100 in donations or March 30th, 2012. Whichever comes first.
So please.
Tweet this. Reblog this. Like this.
I need your help.
Raising money for the ALS Association not only helps further research, but also helps those who are already dealing with the effects that this disease has inflicted. None of your dollars, nor cents, will be going anywhere but to benefit the cause.

Girl With the Dragon Tattoo … family movie of 2012 D: hey I ended up sitting in the foyer of the cinema alone at like 11:15 at night. It’s gotta be something if it can move a person to the point of walking out.
