Little bit of a scary moment this morning... Glen got disoriented leaving before sunrise (he always leaves before sunrise, but there were no lights on anywhere this am)... ended up trying to get to the garage through the bedroom wall. We got it all straightened out though.

Had our first support group meeting with Dr North tonight. Very nice group of people. Of the 5 people with ALS there, no two had the same group of symptoms. They ranged in age from 30-something to a very active, vital 81. Mobile to wheel-chair bound. One lady was there alone, as her mom is in hospice now. One gentleman is going to do the ALS Walk the same day Kevin does his bike ride. Talk ranged from PEGs (feeding tubes) to drug studies to how to support caregivers. And Dr North is quite simply the best.

And the donations for Kev's bike ride keep coming in! You guys are the best too!
