Yesterday I learned that my dad has als also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. There is no cure and people with it only live 3-5 years after the diagnosis. You've all been great people and I've had fun, now I have to spend time with my dad for whatever time he has left. So hug your loved ones, let them how much you love them, and make sure they know how much they mean to you. We only get one shot at life and never take for granted those people in our live that we have been blessed with. Take care & best wishes to you all, Chris

Well, he passed away on June 4. Looking back now the warning signs were there 2 years ago. Glad he isn't suffering anymore but It's difficult to look at photos of him. I miss him so much. My mom and I started going to threapy last week. It's going to be a long road ahead. Anyway, thank you all for your kind words. I'll be dropping in from time to time. Thanks again.
