Happy 40th Birthday Jerry!!

This week marks the 40th birthday of my friend/classmate Jerry. Jerry was diagnosed with Lou Gerhigs disease/ALS in 2002. He has managed to outlive his life expectancy, and is living at home with his parents, his Mother being his full time caregiver. He is still breathing room air during the day, and is on oxygen at night.
A bunch of us stopped by to see him during our reunion this summer. He was so happy to see everyone. When we left, he told his Mother, "that was so good for my heart".
The following is a scrapbook that I made for him of pictures from our Reunion. Hope you are all able to view it. (I've never done this before)

Hope you are all enjoying the day!! Please say a prayer for my friend this week, it will be greatly appreciated!!!

Rita, Alex & Arthur

Wow...I'm impressed with that scrapbook! You're getting all computer-savvy on me. You're gonna have to teach me some of those tricks!

It looks like everyone had a great time. I'm glad you got to see Jerry. Saying a prayer for him...

Have a great week!
