Time for a new post, though I've already told everyone the latest news of our daughter Alicia's engagement to Sean. They have been dating for a year now, they met on St. Patricks day in a downtown pub. So it was on their one year date that he proposed to her. I have known for about three weeks as he told me, Alicia laughed when he told her that he told me, because she knows how hard it is for me to keep a secret. I did a pretty good job, though. les took me to a Blazer game and we were in the 100 section, I've never been so close to the action. That same night Sean was going to pop the question, I knew and it was driving me crazy. At Halftime my phone buzzes, there's the text with a pic of the ring. Les and I both got choked up. Wow what a week! They are discussing wedding dates, sounds like this Summer, mid August. Plus Greg had his big climb and made it all the way up. I see. The Neurologist March 28th for my three month check in. I want to find out if he'd do a muscle biopsy. I had two emgs with the last one showing it had spread, so the ALS dx. But with the scleroderma Les still doesn't thinks it's possible to have both. I'm a rare person indeed if I have both, can't find anyone else that ever has. I'd just like to extra sure. Signing off now,
No matter how many obstacles come my way, I'm finding that every day has it's blessings and I try to adjust. Also Pastor Janet, Carolyn and another pastor gave me an anointing, it was a beautiful experience.

Well thank you Mary. The wedding will be unconventional I'm sure because thats my Alicia! I shouldn't say it's spread, just harder to eat more mucus. I'm drinking more ensures to try and get my weight up. I'm still mowing the lawn but I get more tired, that's because we don't have a self propelled mower. I'll be excited to see everyone in August. Wel will make a family re-union out of it. We like Sean and get along great with him, and love those wiener dogs!
