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.

All's well



Not much new to report after ALS Clinic visit. No one is sure why I'm wheezing so will have a chest x-ray. Breathing score is still good. Having most of my medication changed to hopefully reduce oedema and nerve pain and improve sleep.
I met the new social worker and had a discussion about end of life decisions, DNR, venting, PEG, etc. Learned some interesting stuff. I like to be prepared.
Beautiful day here in Vancouver--sunshine, calm waters and new snow on mountains. Having ALS is bad but life is still good.
