Hi, I'm Phil and the furry one is Macy the MS (multiple sclerosis) cat. I have added the story of Macy to a page at the very bottom of this blog. Due to the timing of my MS and getting Macy we formed a bond that was a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Sadly Macy succumbed to either kidney or heart failure in September 2017. A few months later we adopted a bonded pair of cats. They will never replace Macy but they are very entertaining. Their names are Lacy and Slim

Facebook link to a tribute headstone.

I saw a link to this article along with a photo of the boy with a severe disability that passed away when he was 10. It is a beautiful testimony to his son and it got me thinking about my own disability.
A few years ago a man from church used to visit me and he would often point to my chair and remind me that when I get home to Heaven I will be able to stand. Strangely though that was never my number one thought about getting to heaven. I came to the Lord when I was 25. My singing voice is always been terrible. Really terrible. My number one upgrade in heaven would be that I can sing praises to Jesus and my voice would be fantastic.
Now that I'm disabled you would think it would be that I would be able to stand or move by arms again but it is still my number one thing that I would be able to sing! I have always loved to sing but I'm so far from being able to it is pathetic.
Until that day, my number one desire is that I keep the use of my right arm and hand so that I can operate my iPad or PC enough to be functional. I stretch my right shoulder and arm every morning and night but I can tell I'm losing range of motion in my arm and hand. I keep hoping my MS stopped short of making me totally useless. Maybe you can see from this post I definitely have too much time to think.
I just thought this tribute headstone was fantastic.
