One Amy's biggest regrets was that she would not be on this earth to see her son, Ryan, cured of Friedreich's Ataxia. This genetic disorder seeks to rob his coordination and muscle strength; ultimately leading to motor incapacitation and the full-time use of a wheelchair.

Currently, Ryan is undergoing an experimental treatment that has already provided him the ability to feel areas of his legs that he had previously lost. This treatment is only made available to him because of the financial contributions from donors.
