My Push Up Challenge by Jerry Walter

I am raising desperately needed funding to support National Fabry Disease Foundation (NFDF) community programs by elevating my body with pushups to regain lost strength and stamina after years of progressive decline from Fabry disease.

NFDF programs and services help people with Fabry disease live better and longer lives! Many people with Fabry die at relatively young ages.

Because of Fabry disease, I have chronic kidney disease, lung disease, profound to severe hearing loss, chronic neuropathic pain, chronic GI upset, reduced sweating and overheating, eye problems, and I had a heart transplant four years ago.

Not related to Fabry, I have chronic back problems, which led me to an epidural steroid injection in my spine this month.

Despite my less-than-perfect health, I am going to attempt to do 1,000 push-ups in sets of ten every day for the next month,

I succeeded in doing 1,000 pushups in sets of 10 from September 20 to October 19 to regain strength and stamina and raise funds for the National Fabry Disease Foundation at www.fabrydisease.org.

My workload preparing for the National Fabry Disease Foundation's 14th annual Fabry Family Education Conference and 13th annual Fabry Family Weekend Camp prevented me from keeping up with my activity updates.

See the video links below to view the first ten (YouTube daily limit) of those last 40 sets of 10 pushups to reach my 1,000 push-up goal. I'll post more tomorrow. I appreciate the generous support of those who donated to this cause to help the NFDF provide valuable programs and services to people with Fabry disease and their families. Thank you, all!

Sincerely, Jerry

On October 11th, I did 100 push-ups in sets of 10. I needed to make up for my low number yesterday. To save time, I did them in one place close to my office with a different color in the background. That is the first time I've done 100 push-ups in a day since my military service.
