Out and About

The weather has been perfect this week, in Minnesota. The temps are in the mid-70's and the sun has been shining brightly. Who could ask for anything more?

Yesterday Dennis and Raquel went to Miracle Mile. It's one of the original strip malls in the states. It has changed over the years, but it has managed to keep every store front filled for over 30 years. It is also just a hop, skip and a jump from our new home.

I love that Dennis wants to get out and about. Even more so, I am excited when he is willing to go places without me. Dennis has trust issues, and he is trusting Raquel more and more every day. Just last week, he let her walk with him to a hair stylist shop in our 'hood. He takes his wheel chair and uses it as a walker. This gives them both a safety net. If he gets tired, he can always sit in the chair and be pushed.

He is a man with tons of gumption. He is a man with tons of pride. He is the man of my dreams.

I am a lucky woman.

Until Tomorrow,
Ann and Dennis
Living with Shy-Drager, Multiple System Atrophy and Love and Admiration for each other
