I just noticed something in a photo right before my Mom died…. Our ornery cat was there.

If these guys are setting the tone, you might want to match it. Get your END ALS shirt at the link in our bio and wear it on Lou Gehrig day. Every shirt helps shine a light on ALS awareness and directly supports those living with the disease. #ENDALS #ALSSUCKS

Each morning she kisses Mark once he wakes to start the day. She started this routine when Mark could no longer walk . (December 2023).

Mark has not been able to pet the dogs or walk them for 3+ years.

Eric Dane playing a firefighter with ALS in Brilliant Minds was absolutely heartbreaking and poignant. Bravo Eric for continuing to raise awareness and still being McSteamy!

Old and grey and still in love.. Though he has now gone beyond the sea, somewhere he’s waiting for me.
We took this picture on our 17th anniversary. He died on our 18th, Jul 1 2024

Living with ALS is wondering if my ghost will be in a wheelchair.

🌴 A doctor day for Mark. We left with smiles, came home with a few aches, but got treated to mountains dusted in snow on the ride. Even the hard days give us moments worth holding onto. 🌴

🎄🌴 “If you build it, they will come…”
Turns out all we had to build was the Christmas tree in November — and "jingle bells", we were blessed with Eric, Bill, and Spencer the fluffy one - they came ! 🎄🌴

ALS has taught us to celebrate now, not later. These moments—decorating, laughing, being together—mean everything while Mark can fully share them. Choosing joy early this year. ✨💙🌲

💙 Friends forged through the fire of ALS. Some are cALS, some have lost their pALS — all share strength, compassion, and understanding. 💙 Thank you for visiting us in Palm Springs — your friendship means more than words can say. 💙

Movie night with Wilson 🎬🍿 Popcorn, good laughs, and stand-up comedy to close it out. Thanks, Wilson — always great having you around (and hey, it’s nice to finally not be the tallest in the room 😄).

Italian Night 🇮🇹🍝 got pushed back while Mark rested, but Tuesday’s visit made up for it. David & Steve brought spaghetti & meatballs with fresh parmesan — so good! Grateful for the stories, laughter & company. ❤️

From Mrs. Roper kaftans 🌺 to St. Pat's Day 🍀 to July 4th 🎆… themed dinners are tradition. Hawaiian Night brought Aloha vibes with haystacks, pineapple cake + mango sorbet. Mahalo to David & Steve for the home-cooked fun! 🌈🥂🌴

David + Steve = fun filled evening 🌟
Steve's fresh haircut ✂️, stuffed shells 🍝 (tiny bites for Mark 💛), dogs bouncing 🐾, and tiramisu to finish 🍰.

Good food. Good friends. Good times. #palmsprings #alsjourney #alsnetwork #ALSawareness #EndALS #ALS #ALSsucks #lougehrigsdisease #livingwithALS

🌈 After 6 hours of ALS Clinic Day in Loma Linda, tough talks & vital care, the drive home gave us a rainbow stretching into Palm Springs. Proof that even in the hardest battles, hope still shows up. 💙

The warmer spring weather in Palm Springs allowed the caregiver and I to get Mark outside on the patio for some sun and fresh air.

Many thanks to our DME supplier @unicare_health

Mark's dinner. I have learned to cook and Mark doesn't complain about the taste, spice level or ingredients . Mark's meal today is sponsored by Jevity. Recommended by ALS Nutritionist & dietician.
