As some of you may know, my friend Joy was diagnosed in August and I have dedicated my time to learning more about ALS and trying to create more awareness about it.
I have read a good deal about possible causes and I am wondering your thoughts. What I continue to come across is an association with agriculture chemicals and also a higher occurance among war veterans. There is also a study that implies a higher incidence among tobbacco users... but I have only found that once and it could tie into the agriculture chemical exposure.
I have more info and links on my blog, Hope for Joy
but I am having a difficult time finding anyone who will provide any answers or even a definative "maybe". I would like to know your thoughts as you are directly affected by... or you wouldn't be here.
Thank you
