Bear Lake & Dystonia



Last Wednesday I went up to Bear Lake again, this time with my family. We stayed until Saturday, My parents, Grandma Jensen, Becky’s family and Jonna’s family were all there. We stayed in a condo on the west side of the lake, Unfortunately, this has been an unseasonably wet June and it rained everyday except Friday. Friday was a beautiful mostly sunny day but it was too chilly to have an enjoyable day on the beach. Luckily there was an indoor pool where we spent a lot of time. The kids had a blast swimming; even the two babies (Kenedie and McKinley) enjoyed it!

Random tidbit: I have started ‘The Fellowship of the Ring…again. This time, though, I really believe that I will finish it.

I have to share a link that was sent to me about dystonia:

Tyler's Hope

This family is dealing with primary dystonia; I was diagnosed with secondary dystonia. I have contacted the father, Rick, about helping the Tyler’s Hope organization. He replied and expressed interest in having me be a science advisor for Tyler’s Hope, as well as promoting the organization. If you have a desire to give money to someone other than the IRS Tyler’s Hope is an excellent option. 100% of funds raised goes to research! Visit: www.tylershope.org
