Not a good month

I know it's been awhile. After my Brother Greg lost his hard fought two and a half battle with cancer, I didn't and still don't feel like posting. His blog was beautifully written. I miss our emails since I can't talk. As sick as he was, he always showed concern for me. Thanks to my other Brother, Alan, I got to see Greg a week before he passed. Then Sunday I was in the hospital with pneumonia, which is where I was when Greg went to Heaven. I think about him and Yvonne every day, and remember them in my prayers. Yes his donor gave the gift of more time, to her I'm grateful Cathy

Ski to defeat ALS

Many thanks to my brother Alan who came all the way from Chadron, NE,to ski in the Ski to defeat ALS, and to all who donated! It was a gorgeous day without a cloud in the sky. I've never been to Mt. Hood Meadows. Thanks again!

He is Risen!

Thank you Jesus for taking all my sins to the cross. He is risen!
Happy Easter

care givers

Les and I know that there will come a point when I need someone here to help me when he's a work. I'm delaying that as long as possible! So far I've been able to be on my own, but as ALS effects my hands, arms and lastly my legs we are going to have to hire someone to help. I am not there yet, but Les and need to be prepared. I dread that process, how do you find someone you can trust. Plus the thought of a person here all day doesn't sit well with me. Well I'll have to adjust if we get there. I've adjusted to so many changes.
God will see us through this part of our journey as he is in control. It won't be long till Esster is here, Jesus paid the ultimate price for my sins and God loves us all.

Dad

Dad I'm so glad you made it through the heart by pass and you are out of the hospital. Me and a lot of people were praying for you. Thank you Alice for getting Dad to the hospital swiftly. I love you two!

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.

It's been awhile

I know I don't post as often as I used to. The last few years have been the most difficult I have ever experienced. Each time I'd lose things I used to take for granted, talking, eating. Each time i'd try to adapt. I know this journey is all part of God's plan. For a long time I had full strength in my arms and handsome but that isn't the case anymore. I can't stand the thought of depending on another person to do things for me, but I'm lucky to have Les. I try to take it day by day as Jesus said not to worry about tomorrow. One saving grace is so far there's no physical pain. But being short of breath is scary. Along with the this disease there has been a wedding and improved relationships. I try to focus on the things i can enjoy, if I didn't I'd lose my mind! I just ask God to give me the strength I need to handle what's ahead.
Thanks to out of state family for coming to
see us, it was good to see you all!
