Cancelled

I'm cancelling all the events in my calendar. I'll be rebuilding my calendar in the coming days. 

I will refocus my efforts to schedule events that are best for me and my health. 

With the time I have left, I will spend every holiday in my home with my girls.

Caregiver

I was napping when Amanda and Louise got home (Cora was at gymnastics).

Louise noticed me attempting to get upright. She walked over and grabbed my hand, grimaced, grunted, and tried to pull me up.

At the time, Amanda and I exchanged heartwarming glances.

Now, I feel quite bitter that ALS has turned my 1 year-old into another one of my caregivers.

On another topic, too bad that loved one didn't heal.

Solving so called als is often not even that difficult. Won't happen by fooling yourself into bashing me though.

Video

I've been busy working on a video to say thank you to the participants of the Conway Cup. By "busy," I mean I have to rely on Amanda to help me get my laptop and camera situated. After all, it's hard to be taken seriously if it looks like you have a shelf -- or something similar -- sticking out of your ear!

All of the clips have been filmed, all I have to do is stitch them together...
