Please don't get the bashing stick after me. I guess I just need to vent. So how much progress have we made since the first case of ALS was diagnosed? Let's see Lou died in 1941. He lasted 2 years post onset. Wow what progress we have made. Seems all the other illnesses have made advancements for treatment and in some cases cure's. What about us.......None.
The USA gives so much money to other Nations (no offense to the folks from other Countries) but very little for ALS research. Oh, and that Ice Bucket Challenge that we use to here so much about, what a joke that was. It was just a FAD. You use to hear about it all the time, now not so much. I never understood it. No one I knew who did it gave money for ALS research or to help someone who has ALS. It was all show. Just smoke and mirrors.
I am not a wealthy man. Nor do I try and buck the system. I am just fed up with the games. My proposal is for us to march on Washington DC and demand and draw attention to our cause. Heck everyone else does it and they seem to get results. Why not us? At the very least we could all meet and share information. If you are interested please let me know.
Thanks for listening to my rant.
