I love it when Nancy laughs at us.  She has an eye-gaze computer that allows her to talk.  It is really a cool invention.  If we act silly or something is funny on TV,  Nancy will say, "Ha Ha."  No, it's not the same as hearing her voice, but it's nice to know what she is thinking.  I like the fact that it allows us the ability to be able to communicate with her.

     Nancy is allowed to eat some things.  She has had a milkshake, some ice-cream, a little sprite, and some mashed potatoes. No, she does not have big quantities, but just enough to make her happy.  When she enjoys these things, it brings a big smile to her face and it just warms my heart.  I like the fact that every once in a while, she can have something that she is craving.

     ALS is a terrible disease and to let her have a little bit of happiness, a little bit of pleasure for herself, is definitely well deserved!
