My Life Living With A.L.S....Continued


As we pulled out of the parking lot my mind started to wonder was this going to be our last Thanksgiving and Christmas together. What would I do without Mr. K how could I live. He's the other half of my heart I can't survive without him, I know I can't. Please God don't take him from me. The car ride was silent. What was he thinking, maybe the same things I was. As we pulled Into the driveway Mr. K quietly said I will be In, I need a minute. I got out of the car and walk In the house. Wanting to know so badly If he was OK I peeked out the window. As I looked at him through the glass I could see the tears running down his face. He stayed In the car for about an hour all awhile I was thinking should I go to him, should I comfort him, does he need me. I heard the front door open and Mr.K made his way through the doorway looking at me and softly saying, I am so sorry.

Have a great weekend,

Spousal Caregiver Bill Signed




After three long years Bill HB39 has been signed by the Governor of Illinois. This Is the Bill that I've been working with Senator Koehler to pass. What this means for me and others like me Is the state of Illinois will now pay me to care for my husband Instead of hired help. It Is a great victory. Here Is the original post about the Bill.
