Good morning and happy Friday,

  I have not written in awhile, due to being busy and upset about having ALS, it is not for the faint of heart as my muscles continue to weaken. My left hand/arm is about useless now, I cannot tie my shoes, put on my socks and struggle with many things I always took for granted like opening a zip lock bag, or even a box of cereal. 

I have lost my driving privilege's as I blacked out and fell down about 6 stairs at a customers house while doing an estimate. Scared the homeowner as well as my wife. My watch called her after my fall but as soon as she answered it hung up this happened a few times before she called back and the homeowners answered. I won an ambulance ride to the hospital and a 4 day stay, and to this day no one call tell me why I blacked out. They did a CAT scan, an MRI, a doppler on my heart and my carotid arteries, as well as an EKG. Still no answers, also they had me wear a heart monitor for 30 days to see if my heart was the problem, but no new is good news as I have not heart back from cardiologist. I hope to find out more on my next visit to cardiologist.
