It was very comforting to check in after several months and find that you and several others are still sharing your wisdom and love with everyone. I find coming back here makes it all so real for me again, and it's almost unbearable. I want to reach out to some others that are in Pgh., so I...

I will keep the twins in my thoughts and prayers Kim - I wish the best for you... Trina

You continue to inspire and amaze I see! I think of you and many of the others so often, I hope you are doing well. Much love, Trina :))

Hi Sharon! Just fyi - you can post responses on my home page, since that is what people generally get notifications for. No biggie - I checked yours too :) Can't believe you've been dealing with this for 10 years - I thought 2 was a lot with my mom, considering how quickly some others...

Max was so helpful to me when I was caring for my mom. Rest in Peace Max... Trina

Hi - I'm in the South Hills also, my mom passed from bulbar-onset December 2014. I'm sorry you are dealing with this disease. I could not have gotten thru my 2 years (from diagnosis) without this forum, it so helped to communicate with people who understood, just understood. I hope you are...

Hi Kim - just checked in today after several months. So sorry for the loss of your precious dad, but so glad that you got to be with him when he passed into a better existence. You've been a very loving daughter, and I hope that you are doing well. Really cool about the movie theater :)...

Nancy - I am always thinking of you and Toby. I hope you are as well as you can be...

Thank you for sharing this with us. My mom passed from bulbar als 6 mos ago, and I am such a different person today than I was before her diagnosis. Living through this and caring for loved ones with this disease connects us in ways that I'm sure most people would not understand, but...

Really pretty song. Thanks for sharing it. Trina

Nancy - just read about Toby's fall and how frightening it was for you. I remember one time my mom fell, she was ok but I had to call my brother to help get her off the floor. It was a sobering experience. I think of you often and wish you were not alone in caring for Toby. Trina

Sorry to hear about Toby's setback. I don't think there is a right or wrong way to handle things, you just have to do what you are able to at the time. I wish you weren't dealing with this by yourself. Trina
