My doctors agree that I am sick. I have CIDP with ALS in the picture. Both diseases are formidable – no known cure.
They affect my nerves, weaken my muscular tissue. Each robs me of motor skills. I am in a wheelchair. Prayers appreciated.

Bruce, my heart is filled with sadness as I read your words. You have shared the love of Christ with so many, encouraged many, been a friend to many and now the many will pray for you! “Our God will always be with you” seems shallow when we struggle, especially in pain; however, He is with you in this new phase of life. To quote my pastor Daniel Fusco, “Life is tough but Jesus is real!” Jesus is walking with you in the journey and he knows the pain you are in. He is allowing me to pray for you and I will daily! Your old friend, Janice

Prayers going out for you! I have a far lesser form of Muscular Dystrophy. May God work miraculously in your life!! As Jerry Lewis, an amazing fundraiser for the MDA used to sing, at the end of his telethons, “you’ll never walk alone”!

Hello Bruce! Praying for you, Yvonne, and your family! May the Lord’s healing hand touch your body and bring his healing. Thank you for your loving and faithful service for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
