Показать описание
In the following short video, Loretta Phinney helps to document her brother's touching journey living with ALS. Her brother George is an inspiration to anyone living with a terminal illness. Humorous, talented, a loving father, brother and grandfather George speaks candidly about his illness and teaches us how to live:

"Everyday we have a choice when we wake up, we can roll over and go back to sleep and cry about our woes, and why me? I choose to get on with life, get my feet on the floor, get in my wheelchair and get going. I never dwell on; "why me?" how does this affect me? There are kids in the burn-unit; they're bringing soldiers back in body bags, I'm one of the lucky ones, I'm still here."

"I've decided to stop worrying about dying and get on with living."

~ George White


Please take a few minutes to watch this beautiful and inspiring piece.

Loretta thank you for sharing this video about your brother's journey with ALS. He is truly an inspiration to all of us. We all need to focus less on our challenges in life and more on living our life. Thanks for the reminder George. I wish you all the best. Loretta and Ron are amazing people and now having the chance to meet you, I see it is a family trait. Darlene Phillips(Goren)
