I was blog hopping tonight and ended up reading this story.
It made me sad. It made me want to hug my kids. It made me realize that we don't know what twists and turns our lives might take. It made me want to help Lori.
Oh Beth. My heart hurts. What are the chances that the first time in months I've been able to blog hop (my computer's security is down at the moment) I stop by your blog to link to this girl's site only to find the reason she is ill is ALS/Lyme Disease.
I know Lori and it means so much that you and other kind-hearted people care about her.
I also wanted to mention to you Beth, that I have heard that there is a significant association between Vitamin D deficiency and MS. Our doctor said the Vitamin D issue is the biggest thing he has seen in all his years of practicing medicine. Everyone should be getting a 25(OH)D test to see what their levels are. The estimates are that at least 1/3 of the US population is D deficient. To read more on this evolving issue, you can read:

I may well have to abandon the web altogether.
Praying you're all well Beth!!

Wow. I don't even know what to say. I will be praying.
