It's Saturday not Wednesday but things have been so crazy here lately that I haven't been on in quite awhile. My lease is up on our apartment at the end of October. 2 weeks after Grumpy passed away I got a notice that the management wanted all lease renewals signed 45 days ahead. Not good...

Oh Tillie, so glad to see these pictures of Galilee in Grumpy's tree. It's been such a long few weeks and this truly made me smile. Hugs ~Kaye

Barbie, logging on and seeing this made my heart skip a beat. I am so very sorry for your loss. Words seem so inadequate at a time like this. You will be in my thoughts and prayers and I hope you find some peace in knowing that he is finally free of this disease that takes so very much. ~Kaye

Kim, I am functioning, some things are easier than others. You are right when you say you never know with this disease. It seems as if it can change in an hour. I am in the process of moving so I feel ok one minute and completely overwhelmed the next. I hope you can get to Dallas more and next...

Barbie, Sending you lots of love and strength. I hope hospice gets someone there ASAP. It was so much better having that person there or on call just to run things by. Hugs my friend, ~Kaye

Paulette, You are such an inspiration to all of us here! You are an amazing caregiver and Tim is so lucky to have you! Hugs to you both, ~Kaye

Wonderful news, continued prayers and love. ~Kaye

We purchased a brand new Q-6 Edge for Grumpy to have as a 2nd chair. He was 5-10 and weighed 227 when they went through the fitting process. He probably spent a total of 50 hours in it. It wasn't to his liking after he received his Permobile. It does NOT have a Roho cushion just a gel/ memory...

This is absolutely one of my favorite threads! Such hope and happiness here! ~Kaye

One of the things Grumpy would always tell me was that he would be waiting for me. John 14:1-4 Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for...

Day by Day, I have no words to make it any easier for you. I can only say that he is free from ALS and at peace. Hopefully he and my Grumpy are chatting together as they look down on us and watch over us. I hope you are surrounded by loved ones and friends. Many hugs to you as you begin this...

Maren, I am so sorry for your loss. May he fly free and be at peace. Kaye

Mike, I just finished reading your blog post. I wonder if your children understand how rare you are? Your acceptance of both of them and the paths they have chosen for themselves is a gift. You give me hope that someday I won't feel so lost and so angry. Maybe that's not a "full time" purpose...

Thinking of you Max and Sandy. ~Kaye

Barbie, so glad you had such a wonderful weekend! You continue to amaze me Supergirl! Tillie, my goodness you get into some things in your neck of the woods! Ticks here seem tame by comparison. I am glad you went to the hospital and now are starting to feel a little better! Alana, my hubby...
