    Hate-filled rant

    I hate this disease. I hate what it's doing to my dad. I hate that he gets frustrated, angry, depressed, and discouraged. I hate that my mother has to see her husband in such pain, both emotional and physical. I hate that Dad can't do what he used to or what he wants to. I hate that he's...

    A Christian thought on my ALS

    I thought I would like to share with fellow Christians some scripture which I can really identify with and I wondered if others of you did the same.
