Hi,
I am new to the forum. My mom who is 66 yrs old recently was ALS diagnosed with ALS. Her symptoms started last year with subtle speech changes and in the last 2-3 months we are noticing some minor difficulty with swallowing especially liquids. I know it is difficult to know how quickly or slowly she will progress but can someone share with me any stories or time frames of his or her loved ones with similar symptoms? I am really afraid for her and want to be there for her during these difficult times.
Thank you so much.
