so i have been wondering about the whole EL thing for a couple of days, thanks for your post Hal.....i do laugh a lot, uncontrollably even, but at funny stuff...like i had an idea on halloween that was (to me) so funny i couldn't even share it until the laughing passed. we stopped in for the free black jack tacos they were giving away at taco bell and i thought; wouldn't it be funny to go home and print off coupons for free black jack tacos (expiring that day, of course) to give out to trick or treaters. ok, maybe i do have EL, because that just struck me as hilarious.
so for the serious side, i can't really talk about my
ALS, how I am doing, about how my kids are doing without crying...but is that EL or just that the whole darn thing is just plain old sad. It really is cry worthy, but if i can't share with people, is the disease robbing me of more and am i missing some kind of purpose? is it time for meds? but i am really afraid of not being me on the meds, i don't want to miss out on things i need my emotions for...like the other day when my 6 year old and i watched leaves fall off the trees and just marveled at how they seemed to dance all the way down.
