Super Bowl and a Super Weekend !!!!!

Despite all the difficult challenges of ALS, sometimes there are days of pure happiness and gratitude.  This happened last weekend when Tim, Sam, Joe and his girlfriend, Melissa came home for Super Bowl weekend - flying in for two short days from Texas and LA.  We had quiet time together and also fun - ate at Helmand, a delicious Afghanistan restaurant in Cambridge, then went to  hear very uplifting music from Ladysmith Black Mambazo.  On Sunday we all prayed together at our church with great music, saw the Orlando Magic beat the Boston Celtics in the last quarter, and went home to the Super Bowl.  Melissa, who went to Tulane, knew the "Who Dat" cheer and dance, which she taught us all to do, as we cheered on the Saints to victory. 

Now everyone is gone, I miss them, but we did make some wonderful  memories of family and good times that will be in my heart each day until I see our sons again, hopefully in March!
