We Have All Made Mistakes In This Life. How We Learn From Our Mistakes Is The Measure Of Who We Are.

I Have Been Diagnosed With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (als). It's A Terminal Disease With An Average Lifespan Of Two To Five Years Post-diagnosis, And Scientists Don't Know What Causes It.

Life Is Difficult. Not Just For Me Or Other Als Patients. Life Is Difficult For Everyone. Finding Ways To Make Life Meaningful And Purposeful And Rewarding, Doing The Activities That You Love And Spending Time With The People That You Love - I Think That's The Meaning Of This Human Experience.

It's Not Going To Be Easy, But It's Going To Be Awesome. Awesome Ain't Easy.
