All In: Living, not Dying with ALS

"You have ALS. There is no cure or known treatment plan. This is a fatal disease. Life expectancy is two to five years. I'm sorry."

These words were spoken to us in a dimly lit doctor's office on December 9, 2010, less than six months after we married. A choice needed to be made at that moment. Die with ALS or Live with ALS and be All In. By the grace of God and Denise's amazing faith we chose to live not die with ALS. This is a story of love, of survival, and running, the sport that united us and enables me to keep the memory of Denise alive. There is a lot to her empty chair as you will discover in these pages. Be inspired by my wife and know our God is with us always.
