Bad News

      She is the matriarch of our family. She is the bond that holds us together. When there is a fight, she is the one that breaks it up. She's not a violent person. She's soft spoken, kind, short, loving, funny, and the greatest person I've ever known. My grandmother, Rosa Etta Johnson may have a fatal disease called ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis)or Lou Gehrig's Disease. It is a Motor Neuron Disease that is progressive. There are no cures. If the tests done in two weeks come back positive, she may have to suffer from this horrid disease. I cannot see this happening and I DO NOT want to. I have never gotten such bad news in my life. There have been many disappointments but this is the worst because even if she doesn't have ALS, they still won't know what's wrong with her. Please pray for my grandma and pray for our family.
