No idea, it's Jin that deals with that side of it.

voted alzheimers. its honestly such a terrible disease as many of the other ones listed are. all of my grandparents have had dementia/alzheimers and its terrible to see them waste away in their old age not knowing who you are and losing their independence and dignity. My last grandparent who is still alive is in a nursing home and she has very bad dementia and cant put coherent sentences together and cannot recognize anyone except for my mom and her other 2 sonswhich is sad because we have a large ish family and she was such a people person when she didnt have dementia and loved getting together with family and being so sweet and chatty to us all. She is still super happy though whenever i go visit her and she is still her cheerful self but just cant speak properly and is restrained to her wheelchair and jus basically sits there all day making repetitive noises. My family has been devastated with this disease as its so hard to watch a loved one who was so intelligent and independant years back but this awful disease has taken over their brain and mind completely.

I voted for Epilepsy as I know people who have been affected by it and how hard it can make their life. There are still other very worthy charities in that poll though.

The poll is now closed. Thanks to those of you who voted! Unfortunately we have run into a tie between Ataxia and Alzheimers Society, which means we will be deciding which charity we donate to tomorrow.

Oh just shut up. I don't have to justify anything to you.
