Elephants in the Tea: A Journey Through ALS

Bob Ball had a successful career in Christian radio. During his forty years in broadcasting, he worked with nationally known Christian broadcasters and met U.S. Presidents. His reputation of dependability and integrity extended to the National Religious Broadcasters where he served on the executive committee for twenty-five years. His career ran into an unexpected roadblock when Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS) invaded his active life. Bob struggled to maintain everyday normalcy while confronting his deterioration and the inability of medical personnel to diagnose his condition. Bob's wife, Barbara, weaves the encroachment of ALS with snapshots of their lives growing up, their life together, and raising their three children. Barbara's engaging way with words draws readers into the journey they never expected to take. As you walk beside them, you too will experience the peace and comfort of God's sustaining presence each step of the way.
