AHCF In the News
Today’s Honoree is Jeff Wuchich
Jeff Wuchich, president of the Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood Foundation has worked tirelessly to raise awareness of Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood, a rare neurological disorder affecting one in 1 million children. AHC causes bouts of temporary paralysis affecting one or more parts of the body, lasting from a few minutes to even days. AHC also causes severe learning, behavioral and movement disabilities among some sufferers. Currently the disease is both incurable and permanent, but Jeff and the AHCF are working hard towards a cure. Part of their work includes the “1 in a Million” campaign, which aims to raise $1 million for the AHCF in 2012. Jeff’s son Michael has AHC, and he is working as an advocate for all parents of children with AHC. (more…)
