Welcome to my blog. I have had ALS for 10 years now.


Since I started this blog in June 2008 I've had amazing feedback. Family, friends, people from all over North America, Australia, Scotland, England, and places I can't recall, have commented, encouraged and corresponded. I had no idea when Cynthia taught me how to set this up, how much I would love posting and how many people would read it. I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has helped propel this therapeutic exercise into a daily routine. All of you, both friends and visitors, are now part of my blog family. Welcome.

2 years ago


Two years ago Anne and I sat on the bench at Granville Island after 'lunching' on the hotel patio. We had our pens and note pads at ready just in case we were overcome with a creative writing surge. Life seemed carefree. I had no idea I would be diagnosed with cancer, then ALS, and be in a wheelchair in 24 months. My message is: Smell those roses, hug your loved ones, don't put off your fun "to do" list--because you just never know.
