A very good story on cbs evening news about a man in Corbett, Or. with als. You Tube won't let me emebed it so here's the link. It had Les and I crying, but I think sometimes we need to let it out. It's a heartwarming story.

Thanks for sharing that, Cathy. It sure made me cry, too. What a sweet man. Do you think he has what you have since his speech seems to be going first? Why does ALS happen to such sweet people. It's not fair. It's okay to cry. Life has a lot of crappy stuff. And sad stuff. I guess it's all part of it. We can't have the happy without the sad. I am glad you could cry. Sometimes it makes us feel better. Hope you are breathing okay.
Sending lots of love and prayers.

His speech is going but I'm not sure that was his first symptom. It looks like his arm has been affected, too. CBS did such a good job with that story. It's good to hear about the good in people instead of the bad. And to bring attention to ALS. Life isn't always fair. But good things come out of bad. His dying gave all his friends the chance to do kind acts. I'm using the bi pap at night and sometimes during the day. Hope all is well with you
Love, Cathy

cathy, Checking in. That is a short time span for a A.L.S. person. Your family is doing the same .Greg is not feeling well, going to a doctor today. Will keep you informed, Love Dad and Alice

I know and I appreciate all the love and support. I just thought it was neat that CBS did a story like that. So many stories that tell about the bad in people, not enough like that. I'm getting tired of the election news, it's 24-7! Sometimes I don't turn the tv on till evening. I hope Greg feels better, I've been praying for him.
Love, Cathy

Nice story Cathy. I think that Wallys' story and outlook has affimed my conclusion about the situation that you and Greg are in. I like to try to be optomistic. In order to see any good in what has happened I have to dwell on how it has created new friendships and solidified old ones with all of us. The other optomistic lesson for me is to try to keep what is important to me and mine at the forefront.
That is why I'll make a pizza tonite!
Thanks, Love BigA

Good to hear from you Alan!
There's always something good if you look for it. Never take anything for granted. I used to. I think of the time I wasted worrying about silly things.
Love, Cathy

Cathy, we had a priest a long time ago who said that the worst thing one could do was to worry about what is to come. Keep things in the present time. Love dad and Alice

Cathy Curths said...

Yes you are right, Dad. Jesus said the same thing about worrying. I have to work on this! I need to trust God.
Love you

Good thoughts from everyone here. (Except no one needs new Hermes handbags..:-) I heard you all had sunshine up there. Hope you could enjoy it. I agree--the news and politics are ridiculous. I am glad I don't have tv. I can hardly stand to hear the 5 second sound bites on the top of the hour radio news. Maybe some good books?! And hope you are feeling good this week, Cathy.
Lots and lots of love and prayers!
