Fundraiser to be Held for Young Dixonite with Neurological Disorder

We received the following flier on Wednesday about a fundraiser for Devan Cox. If you haven't heard about Devan's story, here's a bit from the Dixon Tribune:

Devan was diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy in October of 2011. CIDP is a rare neurological disorder characterized by progressive weakness and impaired sensory function in the legs and arms. The disorder is caused by damage to the myelin sheath – which covers and wraps around and protects nerve fibers – of the peripheral nerves.

Here are the details of the fundraiser: 

The friends of Devan Cox are hosting a fundraiser to help raise funds for Devan’s medical expenses and ongoing needs.  The fundraiser will be held Thursday, January 31, 2013 between 4:00 and 8:00 p.m. at Pizza Guys in Dixon, 1455 Ary Lane.  Mention you are there for the fundraiser, and 15% of your sale will be donated to Devan.  There will be a raffle with numerous prizes, and bracelets supporting Devan are being sold for $5.00 each.
