spinal cord research

My name is Chet Dyreson. I was injured racing motocross May 21st 2000. Since my injury, there have been great advancements toward curing paralysis, but much more needs to be done. It is my quest to educate people about the need to support Spinal Cord Research to cure paralysis. There are many Veterans, Accident Victims, Athletes, and many others that need our help. Along with donations, we also need to get our Congressmen involved in backing Spinal Cord Research. Most people know someone in a wheelchair, how great would it feel if you could do something to help them out of it?

I am excited to do something to help in finding a cure for paralysis. I decided on the anniversary of my injury to take my "Gas-Powered Wheelchair" on the road. Figured, what better way to get my message out to the great people of the United States than to do it in a wheelchair?

On the Memorial Day the 30th of May 2011, I will set out in my wheelchair from Perris CA on my way to the State Capitol in Sacramento, California then journey on to Washington DC to rally an audience of our U.S. Congressmen to raise awareness to cure paralysis.

I am reaching out for donations to help fund my trip. With your help, I believe I can get the attention of our public and rattle the cages of our Congressmen! Thank you for you support, Chet
