An update on/from Dustin

I apologize for not putting this up last night, but we ordered cheesesteaks and I went into a food coma shortly after.




Apart from eating greasy food, I did ask Dustin if there was anything that he wanted up on the blog. So here is a bit of what he is up to...

Dustin still is working part time from home. C Media has been amazing in that regard.


He's enjoying getting to spend lots of time with his family every day.

Still in good spirits, appreciates everyone's cards, letters, and books.

He's getting to catch up on a lot of TV. Flying through his Netflix queue. He's watching the (no joke) Harry Potter movies, and about to start watching The Wire. He feels the need to answer out loud when he watches Jeopardy, and is still watching the Flyers and Eagles.

He wears his breathing mask a lot. However, he wants to stress this to everyone reading. He is NOT on a ventilator or anything like that, the mask just makes things a lot more comfortable for him.

He's still on Facebook a lot, and text messaging. May be slow to respond every now and again, but keep bothering him. Eventually he'll get back to you. And if he can't, he will have someone type or whatever for him. So on that note, you may want to keep your messages somewhat PG rated. Just until you know its him.

Dustin is open to visitors anytime. Just let him know. Tomorrow, (january 7th) Dustin will be at the ALS clinic at UPENN all day, but other than that, he should be good to go.


And just so no one thinks Dustin has lost his sense of humor, without being crass. I will say that he is in good enough spirits to make jokes about hot girls coming to visit.

And just one more thing to leave you with...

Just a few minutes ago I was typing for him on Facebook, someone asked him how he was doing. And those who know Dustin and his sense of humor well will appreciate this... "I'm doing fine...apart from having ALS, ***hole"

He still knows how to make ya laugh.
