An ending nears also continues.
ALS itself is an ending every day.
One must live with that ongoing string of losses. But sometimes enough is enough.
I am so tired. I have so much I want to say, so much I want to write, but no more strength. I am ready for the next step.
Thanks to all my friends and family: You brought me flowers, food, support and love. You sent letters, emails and gifts. You appeared from out of my past and from right around the corner. Thanks to my husband. I cannot say all he means to me. Thanks to the wonderful people at Hospice of Lake County, ALS association and Forbes Norris Clinic: All could have been just practical and clinical but became true supporters and fond friends.
I have not been as diligent as I had hoped about staying in touch, but I did try.
I love you all, and I love this beautiful world, but the time for goodbye gets near. Not now, not tomorrow, but soon.
Keep me in your hearts as I keep you.
