Char here, I want to share with you our journey with ALS its not always positivity even though we definitely try and we have had some incredible wins! But this disease can be overwhelming to navigate, Sterling got sick with cold and there were moments when I wanted to call 911, but he stopped me, it's been a tough few days with little sleep, so I'm feeling more emotional than usual, I believe we could use some extra prayers to help us cope with our losses, this disease can be very isolating for both the patient and the caregiver, so if you know someone with ALS, show them some compassion and grace they're just trying to make it through the challenges life throws their way, we can't work, we can't travel to see our loved ones on a whim, we can't visit friends like we used to, our dates are now drives in the car, but we're grateful for the incredible people who have shown up for us, they stop by, they help out constantly, we can't thank them enough, you know who you are, it's just that some days I wish we could be on the giving end, serving others, which was something Sterling and I always looked forward to, today I'm feeling a bit down, feeling sorry for myself and Sterling, but tomorrow I'll put on my cowgirl boots and ride that bucking horse, today I'm just feeling a bit defeated, but I know we'll get through this cold and stuff life throws at us. Im honestly just sick and tired of the feeling of loss, it’s just overwhelming snd it feels like a sucker punch to the gut. Sterling is already doing better, but man when he gets a simple cold it makes all the ALS symptoms much worse. Life just seems to hard today, 🙏🏻 praying for a good nights sleep!!!! And maybe a cure for ALS!
