  • Hi CJ,
    Hope things are going better for you this week. Do you work outside the home? I'm a switchboard operator at our local hospital. I love it. I have the nicest co-workers (friends). They are so supportive of me. You sound like a very strong and caring lady. Don't let your family issues get you down. Just keep being there for you son and ignore the b.s. from the others. I'm sure your husband is proud of you and your son and wants the best for you both. Don't settle for anything less. Be happy like you deserve to be. Kim
    Just checking in on you....I hope you and your son are doing good and adjusting (if that is even a good term to use)! Wanted to let you know ya'll have remained in my thoughts and I hate to read that you're going through issues with family and neighbor(s). Hang in there girl.....it stinks to say, but you are a "model cALS" for those of us now walking behind in your footsteps! Hugs and luv to you!
    Hi CJ, I just got done looking at your photo albums. I saw so much joy and love in them. How many children do you have and how old are they? We have twins (boy/girl) who will turn 15 in September and then our youngest son is 8. I will eventually get around to posting some pics. Hope you are having a nice weekend. It turned cold here the last few days. It's only in the mid-fifties. Last week it hit 96.
    I am truly sorry for the loss of your husband. It is so nice of you to be on here to help others. I am new to this site. My dad after having numerous tests to rule out everything else was diagnosed with ALS a few weeks ago. He is going to go to a ALS specialist in Dallas on June 12th. I have a older brother and sister who both live there. My mother passed away in 97 of colon cancer.
    CJ - I was just checking in after having been out of the loop for a while. I just read about Don and wanted you to know that I was thinking of you. I loved your post reminding all of the CALS how special we are. As hard as it is to lose our PALS, don't ever doubt your strength to get through the tough times and do not EVER feel guilty for any relief you may feel about Don's passing. I applaud your efforts to make something good happen (by donating all of Don's equipment) out of something awful. Mom and I have done the same since my dad was released. We decided that if we didn't turn it into a positive... it would have all been for nothing and that we would spend the rest of our lives thinking, "poor us." Mom retired 2 weeks ago and has committed 2 days a week to our ALSA Chapter.

    I think I'm rambling, so I'll stop now.

    Just know you're in my thoughts!

    Saw that you dropped by the other day. Things here are OK. Hope all is working out for you and your son. Wish I could do more to help. Lotsa hugs.

    CJ, are you planning on going to Disney this summer with your son? I thought I read that somewhere... if you are, let me know, I live about 30 min. from the park--
    Well, I guess I'm not sure where I was going with that anyway. Desperation I guess. I saw some parallels between your late husband's situation and my father's so I wanted to ask some questions about that.

    I am so sorry you lost your husband recently. It's an incredibly painful disease for all involved. Take care of yourself. If I ever get the PM ability I will shoot you a note if you are up to it.
    CJ - We have never spoken before but I am "Beach Bum's" daughter. I would like to send you a private message if I could, but I am not sure how to do that. I am assuming we have to be "friends"
