50 YEARS SINCE JOE DIED FROM ALS-HOPE FOR THIS CONDITION IS HERE

 August 4, 1974 Adolph's father and my father-in-law died after a 7 year run from ALS-Lou Gherig disease.

My first experience with the Di Mambro family and Joe was already experiencing the early symptoms.

There has been no new treatments or cure for AL.

Until recently, when the Western News newsletter wrote about Dr. Michael Strong and his team at the University of Western Ontario that is researching and coming close to finding a cure and a way to deter the illness.

Always good to know after all these years that is hope for patients and families in the modern times.

GRANPA COOKS AND DADS CAN TOO!

Today is Father's Day here in Canada. A celebration of being a Dad and now a Granpa! Back in Italy we had thriving businesses, then life made us come to Canada when I was 9. My father-padre died when I was 24 from ALS-Lou Gherig's disease.  My mother had worked and at the same time cared for him for years.

The picture is me when I was young with my father at one of his companies in Cassino Italy. He loved my mother's cooking. I was a different Dad. I am a different Granpa than others from my area. Guys cook for the women in your lives when you can! Change with the times and the women that you love!So another recipe next week, today I am enjoying my day!
