More About yugo

I have not taken many photos of myself alone.  They are mostly with the grandchildren, so I will have to find one I am able to share.  They are the ones that keep us going.  They make you want to do things.  I still walk in my house some, but they make me push the envelope and sometimes I pay for it by falling down or just getting alot of pain in the evening.  But to me it is worth it.  I have PLS, I only just found out 6 months ago.  I have had it for over 5 years.  I am in a wheelchair.  It has affected my legs and other parts as well.  I love to laugh, play jokes on people and will continue to due so forever.  I was a nurse prior to this happening and I miss is sooooo much.  It is hard for a nurse to be a patient.  My husband is my caregiver, and we do have the best times with each other.  I have never had a fight with him.  This PLS has not changed that.  That is why my additude is go great.  I have a great partner that holds me and loves me no mater what.  The Lord send me an angle when he sent me Mike.
