What a relaxing evening Seth and I had last night. We had a family cook-out at my brothers house. Just sat and ate. Then smores for dessert. Seth had his friend Jake spend the night. Jake is a good kid, I'm glad Seth has good kids to hang around with. That is one less worry I have.
Not much on tap for today. Maybe try and do a little laundry. It is such a nice day here in Ohio. The sun is shinning, temp is about 84. We don't get many days like this in April. I hope we don't pay for it later.
Right now Seth is with his mom. It's hard for me when he goes with her, even for a little bit. I don't know what I will do when he reach's college age and moves out. I try not to think about those things. I try to give him a normal life, but it isn't normal. I think that one day he will resent me for having the MD, maybe even hate me for it. I love my boy more than anything but feelings come, and he won't be able to help it. He has dealt with this his whole life. Did it matter? Does it matter now? Will it matter later? Sometimes I think to much and don't like what I think. The house is quiet right now. No sounds of Xbox 360, the fridge door shutting, "Dad, can I have a pepsi", He will return soon, but for now, it's the quiet.

Introduction
Hi Everyone reading my Blog...I am a single dad to Seth a great 12 year old. I am also physically challanged. I hate the word disabled, so you won't here me use it that much. I have a form of Muscular Dystrophy (Limb-Girdle). It has it's challanges, but so far it hasn't got me. I do use an electric wheelchair, my son along with my brother and sister-in-law help me quite a lot. They are my strength.
I have tried to blog before but I let it go, but with this blog I hope to let everyone see day by day the struggles, and the highs of rasing a 12 year old, while having a physical limitation.
The past 3 weeks have not been a whirlwind. I was divorced on April 2, 2009 after 22 years of marriage. That is the last you will hear of that. It's life...I'm done, I'm over it. Don't want to talk about it.
I had a problem with a Kidney Stone 2 weeks ago. You want to talk about pain? Worst pain I have ever felt. I am now scared to death to drink anything but water. After the Kidney Stone thing I developed Pneumonia and was hospitlized for 3 days. Now, after all that I'm feeling fine.
Seth and I live in a small southeastern Ohio town. We have our own home and do pretty good. We work as a team, although sometimes it does get rough.
I will post different things about our lives. Different dishes we try and make for dinner, LOL. Sometimes they are good sometimes we throw them out and head to the restaurant up the street. I must say Seth makes a wicked Lasagna.
Thats mostly it for the day Hope you all enjoy my blog
