So good to see you around. How are you and Wally of course doing. Miss your updates on him and his life.

Keep in touch please Thelma

Hello, Thelma--Thank you for thinking of us. We are doing pretty good.
Wally, Jr. is on a bi-pap, still able to eat pureed food without choking. The bi-pap has changed his life. We didn't realize that CO2 was building up to levels that were making him sleep all the time. He felt well enough to go to Maine last Fall and again in April of this year. In April he was invited to Bowdoin College in Brunswick, ME for the screening of "Mind Games," a film about Dr. Thomas French who lived with ALS until September 2005. Dr. French graduated from Bowdoin. It does Wally a world of good to get out like that.
He has been writing using Facilitated Communication (used by the autism community)--he still has a tiny bit of movement in his right arm. He is practicing with a TOBII (eye gaze) for when he can no longer FC.

How have you been?

Our best to you, Wally's Mom

Oh that is so good to hear. I think of him often and wonder about how he is. funny how some people you don't really know and will never get to see pull at your heart strings.

You are one strong lady and a wonderfull Mother to this boy/man. May you find happiness for yourself along this long road.

I will watch for you now to hear about you and your whole family. You are a light in the darkness.

With humillity I am very happy to have known you even this little bit.

Stay with us we need you with love Thelma

Thelma--thank you for your kind words. I hope that you are doing well.
It is a wet Fourth here--but we are appreciating the coolness.

Wally's Mom

Back home again and looking forward to reading your email.
