I have known this person for many years, since we accepted Jesus Christ together in Church. He is a great person, a serving Christian, and he is dying of Muscular Distrophy. He has been fighting this illness for many years. I ask each and everyone of you to pray for him, his name is Ray Tejedor. Thanking you all, Bonchi. ( God Bless You )1 Recommendation5 Comments

Gail responded to my dad's recipe and I started talking about my dad. I know I have shared some of his history with some of you, but it's time for me to try to finish it, even though he will always be in my heart.
A little family history. He was born in a tent in Carizozo, New Mexico. His dad was a trail boss on a cattle drive. His dad and mom had a ranch but she wanted to go w...1 Recommendation8 Comments -
Thanksgiving was a nightmare! My father in law spent two days insulting me. Doesn't know why I am not working. Said there is no way my muscles can be strong if I don't use them. Doesn't understand I CAN'T use them. He said I need to get some braces on my legs and start walking. His impression is I am fat and lazy and just don't want to work. He actually called my daughter with...1 Recommendation5 Comments

I don't know what I've done differently, but, I am having agonizing, screaming out loud pain in my right hip. It hurts to sit down, get up, and even worse to walk! I was about to do laundry, but, with this pain I can barely walk. It even hurts to lie down in my bed!!! Just yesterday I was doing pretty well, and now look at me. It just goes to show that you never know what's going to h...1 Recommendation8 Comments

I'm enjoying some quiet time right now. I look at each day as a new beginning, and hope that things will get better. I'm really missing my mom today. I look at all the pictures taken in her last years. They're incredibly sad! Alzheimer's completely robbed my mom of her mind. I'm remembering my last vision of her being carried out on a gurney, and in a body bag. It's...1 Recommendation9 Comments

I was in my bed tonight trying to take a nap when I suddenly starting coughing violently. Without warning I vomited all over myself. I managed to get up to clean myself, and change my clothes. This terrible experience made me think of my mom, and what she must have gone through before her death. She died choking on her own vomit. Unfortunately, my darling mom was unable to sit up or even turn her...1 Recommendation5 Comments
