A Walk

This morning the Boss and I attended our second walk to promote and raise money for research to find a cure for ALS. My son's mother in law has had ALS for about 2-1/2 years and won't last much longer. It's a bad thing that she contracted the dreadful disease, but it's a good thing that it'll probably be over soon.

My mother and the Boss's mother both passed from Alzheimers. As bad as it is for the mind to go, followed by the body from Alzheimers, I think ALS might actually be worse. With ALS the mind is the last thing to go, leaving the afflicted trapped in a dying body.

As of the walk they collected $74,000 with more promised.

Naturally I carried the .45 on my hip the entire time.
