Sharing My Last Etsy Purchase













So, I've had my eye on this little wall vase from OldNewAgain for sometime now and decided to finally purchase and I am so glad I did. Isn't It adorable. As soon as I opened the box I knew just where I was going to hang It, on my sun porch. I immediately went to my garden and snipped off these tulips. Enjoy my new find. Take care.

My Life Living With ALS... Continued












Over the next few months we saw gradual changes In Mr.K. Most of the changes were happening with his breathing and the lack of use In his hand's. At this point he could no longer stand on his own. The muscles In his legs quit working entirely. We were both scared of what was to come of our life as we knew It. Thinking to myself does every ALS patient progress like this. Later I did find out that no two ALS patients every progress the same. Some times the breathing was affected sometimes the limbs are. We had limb onset which Is the better one to have, as If one was better to have then the other. Two months down the road and we were getting ready for our next appointment with the neurologist. The morning was smooth no major problems. I got Mr.K In the car and headed for the doctor.
