    Mom is steadily getting weaker from ALS

    My mom is steadily getting weaker now, and I know I have to face the horrible reality of losing her. I am feeling guilty because in some way it will be a relief.

    Mom and her new ride

    My mom got her new chair yesterday and when I got home from work there she was riding down the road with a huge smile on her face. I love the fact that we live next door to my parents and I can go walk with her when she goes out for a cruise. The smile on her face was worth everything to me. Her...

    Another fall for my mom

    My mom fell again last night and she thinks she broke her toe. She didn't go to the hospital because she said they wouldn't really do anything for a broken toe. I guess she has a point. My father was terrified because she made a lot of noise when she fell and he thought it would be much worse. I...
