Hi Everyone..
I'm sorry I haven't writtien for a while..
I am not sure how to write this.. so I am going to start where I should.. I had a golf tournament last June to raise Money for ALS..and did a pretty good job at it..and at my tournament.. after the tournament people started to show up and join their families.. Lot of these people had ALS.. I am not being ignorant when I say this.. Please DON"T get me wrong.. But I looked at them..and then at MOM.. and I would say to myself.. this is not MOM.. Well today..and for the last few months.. IT is MOM.. Mom has gone down LOTS since last June.. She walks everywhere now with her walker.. and now talking about a electric wheelchair (getting measured tomorrow) her speech has changed.. She has lost lots of weight.. her speech has changed.. ( I'm not writing this to get a response.. but writng to maybe help with my hurting.. I am sorry for that) Mom still tries to smile..and put on a face that she is ok.. and nothing is wrong with her.. But recenbtly she cries alot..and I know she is scared.. My Grand mother just passed in the last few months..and Mom never told her she had ALS.. she didn't want her mother to worry about this.. But now that my Grand Mother is gone.. i find my Mother has given up some.. good or bad.. i support her in all her decissions.. ALS is a HORRIBLE F&**ing disease.. I am sorry.. I wish I could do more..and help support ALS more and more.. People here at the ALS Forums.. are wonderful people.. they are so loving, and giving, and caring.. This message probably does not make alot of sense..and I am sorry.. I will write more in a bit..
Mike
