 About Me
Dx May 11, 2006 with Lower Motor Neuron Disease, ALS. Went for a second opinion and was told I might have CIDP Third opinion said forget it I have definitely have ALS. Guess that is why they call it "Practicing" medicine. I have 4 children and 15 wonderful grandchildren. I am a Christian. My faith in God and Jesus Christ is what makes me able to face each new day with whatever I may have going on inside my body or outside in the world. I pray that ever day I may be able to make someone's day a little better. Have as good a day as possible.
