I’m a proud Vietnam Veteran, husband & a father of 3 wonderful children & 5 grandchildren. I was in a transportation company in the US Army & drove a truck for the Teamsters Local 705 for nearly 20 years. I loved driving my truck & being unable to do what I love every day is only one of the things this disease has robbed me of. I dreamed of retiring to FL with my wife, watching my children grow & have children of their own. I dreamed of teaching them to fish, catch a baseball, play music and horse shoes. Because of this disease I am without the use of my arms & without the use of my arms I no longer can hug my wife, my children, or grandchildren. I miss being able to play with my grandchildren.
