My name is Kat Doyle and I have CMT type 1A like my father, grandfather, uncle, cousins, and great grandmother. I was diagnosed when I was 10 years old and have found new ways to survive and thrive. I am celebrating my 10 years of my first corrective surgery and what better way to show off my correct walk than walking with my fellow CMT family!
I am participating in the Walk 4 CMT event to raise money for the Charcot-Marie-Tooth Association (CMTA). The CMTA is a 501c3 non-profit working with world-class partners to advance treatment-oriented research through STAR (Strategy to Accelerate Research).
To people with CMT, STAR research for a cure means regaining feeling in the extremities, walking without tripping, buttoning shirts and being able to pick up change off a flat surface with ease. STAR is synonymous with stopping the progression of CMT and living a life free of limitations.
STAR is hope for a future without CMT.
Please help make a difference in the lives of those living with CMT and for our generations to come.
Together, with your support, we can reach our fundraising goal.
