Hello YouTube friends!

I’ve gotten a bunch of questions about our careers, so I thought I’d share our journeys over the past 30 years of work. Meanwhile, our days are in a kind of flow state. Between Riza helping 4 days a week and all the various systems and adaptations I set up over the past couple of years everything seems to be working well. Heather’s physical health isn't improving and her mobility is getting worse but her cognitive state seems more stable, which is the best I can hope for. We’ve also found a new way to connect through music. I’ve been singing songs like Those Were the Days,” “My Friend, If I Were a Rich Man, and some of her favourites from The Sound of Music and Jesus Christ Superstar - and get this - Heather joins in with some of the lyrics! It’s like a whole new level of connection, and I’m so happy about it. I hope you enjoy this video.
