About Me
Married for 39 years with two daughters and two grandsons. Workaholic all my life until ALS hit me. First signs of a problem around Feb. 2005 and diagnosed 5/06. Left arm and hand affected and can feel weakness in legs and right arm. Needed to work as long as possible because we all know disability is a big cut in income and we all have increasing medical cost. Hope to retain my positive attitude with God's help. I am the short blonde here with my daughters . Living with ALS is rough but I am still here with my supportive family and friends.
