A year ago today, Mary was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease/ALS. So much has changed in that year, yet Mary remains the fighter she always has been. She is still able to speak on the phone, and is able to enjoy short conversations. Typing is a chore, yet she continues to text with friends and family. We are closer to getting the Tobii EyeMobile system, which will make it much easier for her to communicate with her caregivers, friends and family. Thank you to everyone who has made a donation, and the ALS Guardian Angels who gave us a grant for a portion of the equipment.
Denise’s mom was here for a week, and just went home on Monday. It was nice to have her here. She helped to get the house decorated for the holidays, unpacked and organized some pictures to be hung, and spent time just be-ing together.
