- About Me
- I am the wife and primary caregiver of Ray, PALS diagnosed in May 2008. Since then, the disease has progressed rapidly: cane in May, walker and transfer chair in June, full-time power chair in July. Already his voce has softened and slowed and he is frequently short-of-breath, he tires easily, is beginning to have some difficulty swallowing and tremors have moved into his arms and hands and he has lost most all arm and hand strength. Despite all, he remains positive, peaceful and a joy to be with and I am blessed.
