Finally a diagnosis.....

I haven't been posting lately.....

As some of you know my wife Pam has been sick.....July 2013 she was in the hospital in serious condition.....she recovered some and we busted out but she never fully recovered...... weak muscles / headdrop......Drs and more Drs.....MRIs Cat scans....spinal pain injections and even (stupidly) neck Botox........No answers...........

July 2014 she's critical again......this time we end up in a different hospital with New Drs and they ask "Who's her Neurologist ?" .....she dosen't have one......Then they dropped the bomb......It's ALS......LouGehrigs Disease......The beneficiary of the IceBucketChallenge.....The nerves no longer communicate with her muscles

She's been sick for so long.....we've had to blindly "accept" and embrace this diagnosis until we can get to Mayo Clinic in Jax for a second opinion and support.....that will take several months due to her present condition....until then we're home

As our World shrinks we can't afford to lose our good friends here.......Not the kind of news you expect to find on the gardenweb.....Don't forget us

Posting from Orlando near Leu Gardens......dougandpam

here's Pammie in the garden a couple years ago...............
