Surprised by my wife, a rice crispy football during the Grey Cup last night. I don’t know where I would be at this point, without my beautiful wife Lisa.

Hoping & praying that everyone has success & good health through 2024. Enjoy each & every day to the max. Don’t put off bucket list plans, way into future? Go after them now. No regrets. Would do anything, to turn the clock back & follow my own advice. Best Kirts, Lisa & family

ALS is a demon & has no sympathy whatsoever but at the same time ALS does not like dealing with Hall of Famer’s such as King Salming. A challenge but nothing he can’t overcome. Lean on me any time my fellow teammate. Kirts

Phil Green exactly correct here in Canada too. Drain on bank account is outrageous. Not only need for ALS equip for each stage of journey but Meds can cost 10K + per month & cost for caregivers as one declines absolutely pushes the family to the brink. Where is Government help???
