Like the person above, you don't know me from Adam.(we met briefly at Red Hare a few years ago) My grandmother married a young man she was giving care to. He was paralyzed, considered a quad.. but could definitely use his arms a lot. They loved each other so much. Your story reminds me of them so much. She took such good care of him that he out lived her! (of course, he took care of her, too! in any way he could) He had bed sores realy bad for a very long time. It is very hard to watch. Maybe you could leave the room sometimes. I hope that you are having home health people help you out. My grandma had such a certain way to care for Frank that she couldn't leave it in anyone elses hands because they didn't do it right. Of course that started to change as her own health began to decline... I could go on for days.. PLEASE CONTACT ME.. PLEASE LET ME COMMIT TO HELPING YOU WITH SOMETHING FOR AT LEAST A COUPLE OF HOURS A WEEK. I am also more than willing to listen if you need it. I saw what my grandparents went through. I lived with them growing up. I can only imagine what you go through. I wish I had helped my grandma sooner. Sending you guys Love. xoxoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619083528593205634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540911699096278110.post-73163335378233265452016-06-18T02:54:10.465-07:002016-06-18T02:54:10.465-07:00Thought the above comments are so insightful and c...Thought the above comments are so insightful and caring, I can't expand other than to say love and many prayers constantly meant for you both.

Hope, always take time for yourself and you don't have to frame it as being in Steve's best interest either. It's just the right thing to do for so many reasons. It's the oxygen mask on the airplane... Always humbled by you and yours~ KathyUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08798063298229907463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540911699096278110.post-56271742500027640462016-06-17T06:31:12.867-07:002016-06-17T06:31:12.867-07:00I see my daddy's days,with my mom and I know w...I see my daddy's days,with my mom and I know what you must be going through. This ALS is cruel and sucks the life out of those worrying and carrying for their loved ones with ALS. Still praying daily for those with ALS and their families for inner comfort and strength.Amy Muizniekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14990649897143443133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540911699096278110.post-54891669149337259902016-06-17T06:19:00.051-07:002016-06-17T06:19:00.051-07:00I continue to hold you and Steve in my heart and p...I continue to hold you and Steve in my heart and prayers.

Is there anything we can help you with? Let others help you. I live in Woodstock, GA. You don't know me from Adam but I am willing to help you any way I can. If nothing else, know my little family is praying for you and Steve daily. You are not alone.DisnyfanAndiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00060960117311272153noreply@blogger.com
