While in the States last month, I became aware of another one of those "Really" experiences with ALS.
We were staying at a motel with a swimming pool, well I always make use of a swimming pool it makes me feel better, at least in the past. As I eased into the pool, the floating sensation was great after the stuggles with walking. So I was able to forget about the ALS for a moment. Then I made a move that snapped me back to reality, I shoved off to swim, the legs no longer worked for thrust and I started to sink, my only thought was "Really", good thing it wasn't a deep pool, I was able to float to the side. So thank-you ALS, another enjoyment taken.
