#2 | ALS Hits Home
** If needed, click here for the backstory.**
The ALS disease is progressing as expected with my Mother. Which means ... each day Glenna Moore finds doing everyday activities like talking, writing, and swallowing a little more difficult to do. She gets around using a nifty scooter and takes more naps during the day to help keep her energy level high at opportune times. This Thanksgiving weekend provided my Mom lots of opportune times to spend with her grandchildren.
I recently completed the second mini-documentary sharing stories and memories from my Mother. It shares photos of all the Moore children beginning with Lana, then Trip, and it closes with the twins—Marty and John (me). With each photo of the children, my Mother shares quick stories and memories. Enjoy.

John:
Great use of the blog and vlogging, to capture your mom's thoughts, stories and history. I lost my dad to ALS almost five years ago, and I wish both the technology had been where it is now and that I'd been thinking about some type of recording, even if it was just an audiotape. Anyway, my thoughts are with you, your mom and your family.

John,
My mother is in the final stages of Alzheimer's and wasting away slowly. So I understand. My prayers are with you and yours.
