An Arizona father of two diagnosed with ALS is refusing to give up, and he's now fighting for others battling the disease without financial resources.
"I was diagnosed the day before Thanksgiving 2019," Weinbrenner said. "I broke down crying in the parking lot."
He's a father of a 4-year-old and 2-year-old, and he went from an active lifestyle to confined by a wheelchair in his Paradise Valley home. But as he faced this reality, he also saw hope. "Once I was diagnosed with ALS I decided not to feel sorry for myself and do nothing about it," he said. "What I could do is turn a negative situation into a positive one."Now, he's hosting his third annual fundraiser called Hues of Hope on April 1 at his Paradise Valley home. "I'm eager to raise money to help families that have ALS," Weinbrenner said.
