Damocles revelled in blissfull ignorance of the warrior’s sword suspended above his head by a single strand of horse hair. Seated on the throne of Dionysius II, the flippant underling was poised to die, or perhaps to learn. King Dionysius had observed his servant’s ignorant envy of royal...
I know that not many of you knew much about us and especially my PALS, Gerald. We found the forum long after he had been diagnosed in 2002. I would mainly read some of the posts looking for help and trying to be of help.
Gerald lost his battle on 8/12/10. He had double pneumonia and MRSA and had...
had hoped to find peace here again but find instead that Jeff has been banned.
Amazing how is it that the robynblues, the Silverlinings, Alexandres of this world got left in peace and our dear Jeff gets banned.
Surely it was clear to ANYONE that he finds huge difficulty in expressing his...
Holidaying for a couple of nights in the Snowy Mountains my Favourite Wife and I are surrounded by trees, wonderful Australian trees, whose leaves hang down. And on our third alpine pilgrimage for the year we are hoping, once again, that it will snow!
Downward-hanging leaves are superb. I...

I thought I would like to share with fellow Christians some scripture which I can really identify with and I wondered if others of you did the same. I say for fellow Christians because one who does not know Christ as his Savior could not identify with these verses at all. But in Christ, we can...

Hi Everyone,
I posted the other day with some of my symptoms and fears of ALS. Again, I am so impressed with everyone dealing with ALS on this website, and the caregivers, and your ability to "go on" in spite of what is happening.
