"Planning"






I thought I would share today with you something that I am very passionate about and that Is the "Walk To Defeat ALS". As some of you already know Mr.K was diagnosed with ALS, better known as Lou Gerhig's Disease In 1999. He lives only by the help of a ventilator. He can not eat, swallow, walk or breath on his own. You are probably saying right now, oh poor me. Please don't feel sorry for me. Since Dennis's diagnoses I have done so many thing's, thing's that I would of never done. I've started my own business, have a blog, twitter, face book, lollishops, numerous group's and teams and the best part of all I've met so many wonderful people.

I feel so blessed to be able to stay home and care for Mr.K. He has such an amazing attitude and Is a absolute joy to be around. Of course I wish this terrible disease had never entered our lives but It has and so I will continue to walk through my journey with dignity and grace.

The Walk To Defeat ALS will be held on Saturday, June 13th 2009. For four years I've chaired this event. This year I've passed It to someone else, although I am still very much Involved. To learn more about ALS go to ALSA.org
Have a wonderful Monday,
Kathi
