About Oriole29

I am a 61 year man. I work a 40 hour week as a Safety and Training Coordinator for the same company for 36 years. I still like to play golf, work around my house and I am a Crew Chief on a Race Car team at a local dirt track. I have twin sons 25 years old, one still lives at home. My speech is gone and I can no longer eat anything by mouth. In Feb. 09 I had a PEG tube implanted in my stomach. I waited a little too long to have that done, but now it is working great and helping maintain my weight. My Family, My Friends and the Company I work for are all VERY supportive and helpful.
