Hi I am Mike Rayl

I am new here too... I am a PAL. dx/03/99 onset/6/96

I have seemed to stabilized. I eat regular food, but i used to choke...
it seems to have stopped. I talk with a computer, a Franklin, language master... I still walk a little, a hundred feet or so each day, with a
walker and help...

I live in a nursing home, over 4 years now. They are capable of handling feeding tubes..

I need help, dressing, showering, in and out of bed... My hands have lost most of their function, i am typing this with one finger,(but i feel grateful for having what i have left).

When I came here I thought it was the beginning of the end of my life,
wrong, it was the beginning of a whole new life filled with love, peace, joy... happiness.

I have a lot, laptop computer with DSL, satellite tv with hbo, VCR/DVD player, an ipod. So i have all i need to be happy. In my quickee
electric wheelchair I go to starbucks and the mall, so im blessed...

I just wanted to say hi, and i am grateful for having found you all...
It is quite a forum...
