About Me
I was very athletic all through school. Began boxing after High School until about 83. I started working road construction in 79 then got a job on a surface coal mine in 81 on the equipment maintenance crew where I was in contact with various petrochemicals daily. I married my high school sweetheart just wks after I was diagnosed. We have two fantastic kids. Daughter born in 87 and son born in 89 only 20mo apart. I was diagnosed in 86 with onset possibly as early as 84. I became vent dependent and got a feeding tube March 93. We continue to be very active despite ALS. Life is an adventure! More…
