Meet Clostridium Difficile– Clostridium is resistant to antibiotics, you can’t kill it with most conventional household cleaners or antibacterial soap.
It’s nickname is C-Diff and it’s a pain in the butt…I’m not kidding about that.

You’ve Got To Want It.
Today I found out my brother’s ex-girlfriend died.
She had a disease called Cerebellar Ataxia but what got her was pneumonia.
Her name is Sue and she and my brother have a son named Andy.
Andy has Cerebellar Ataxia too- he’s blind and can’t walk or control his facial muscles and it’s difficult for him to talk, he takes his food through a tube. He’s in his early 20’s and never learned to drive a car, he’s never traveled or had a girlfriend he loves the TV show “Friends”.
He’s in a nursing home.
That’s Andy’s life now- that’s what he grew up to do- to end up bedridden in a nursing home.
I really hate life today.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t intend to make the most of it- I intend to enjoy making every freaking damn second of it count.
For Andy and Sue.

Over the weekend my husband ran for a national delegate position for Barack Obama and he got it!
Here’s my husband’s speech ( he actually sang a few lines from a couple of songs and played his guitar ).
I’d like to say how proud I am of him… Luis does great work for our community and I’m grateful he was given this chance to be part of this historical delegation.

a Delegate’s Speech
This land is your land,
This land is my land…
And the times
They are a changin’
Good afternoon fellow delegates, alternates and political warriors. I am LUIS MOSCOSO: community organizer, union activist and Democratic “CHANGE AGENT!”
YOU are the FORCE for CHANGE I’ve been organizing for – and Senator Obama is the LEADER for CHANGE that is so desperately needed now!
I am excited to be here with all of you. The ENERGY of INCLUSION that has been set in motion cannot be stopped! WE are a force to be reckoned with. YOU are the America I’ve always dreamed of.
I have been in these battles before – and I’m ready for the FIGHT of OUR LIVES.
Let me work with you to take back our country starting in Denver at the Democratic National Convention – then back at home in our Congressional and Legislative Districts and throughout our State.
