Thanks Debra.. Mom died of heart failure. 13% usage was not enough to keep liver and kidney working. Today is Sunday and I'd call her early to get ready for church and then pick her up and do lunch after church. Sure miss that.
Wow seven great grandchildren. Great. I didn't get married until I was 59 which was 2.5 yrs ago, so I don't have to worry about the grief of kids.
I,ve not yet figured out how this forum stuff works so I hope you get this. Wishing you and your family a good day. Randy

oh how I love doggies. My girl is in my album, she is half yourkie and half Maltese, everyone think's she is at lot like your guys. I am so glad you are here, you seem like a wonderful addition to are family. You bring a special gift to the forum. Big hugs. I love the way you said that you would watch movies with your mom, that is the most special thing, to be beside your loved ones, next to them.. I want to tell you I cried when I read that, it was so special.

Hi. Thanks, for your concern. I am hanging in there. Just need some answers.. Thanks,

hi ,just chexking in and hoping everything is ok for you

Thanks for the information, its just awful it really is, i have three dogs that i wouldn't allow this to happen to so why we must let our mothers go through it is beyond me. I'm glad you and your mom got to spend some quality time together. Mum goes to the specialist tomorrow and she's hoping for 'good news' she says. I have my fingers crossed for her but i can see it progressing gradually.

Debra,
You are a sweetheart, sees like cals like you are just about the most special people in the world. I believe the caring of loving cals like yourself is what makes this journey bearable. I am so moved by your kind message, I look forward to getting to know you.

Debra,

Welcome to the forum. I'm sorry for your loss. It seems like those who have lost a loved one to ALS really seem to find camaraderie here, I hope you do too. Yes, I love orchids, but have had varying degrees of success growing them. I'd love to see some photos of the ones' you've grown. It sounds like you have quite a collection.

Hi Thanks for offering your support. I am so sorry for your loss, it must still be hard for you to come to terms with, i'm starting on that journey and its one i really dont want to take but have to face up to, i'm crying loads and am in disbelief. Debra, what happens to them? I know you only have your experience to go on but i have no clue as to how to handle this or what to expect, i understand that it'll be painful to relive so if it is please dont, i understand. Thanks again Clare
