Quote by Amy Makechnie

“Were we destined to have a Dad with ALS or is it all just random? Is this a test? To see how much we love him? This is how I’d answer: Ten thousand tries until we’ve mastered the impossible thing? That’s nothing. Nothing compared to how much I love Dad. We create our own destiny. ALS doesn’t stand a chance against the Maroni dream team.”

It made me feel good, but it also made me notice the things that hadn't happened”
