Hello,
I am writing just to get a new perspective for caregiving. Any and all advice is appreciated. My Mother was diagnosed with Familial ALS last December, she is now beginning to lose the use of her legs and it takes several people to assist her with lifting to go to the bathroom. This is taking a toll on our family and friends who are the current caregivers. I am here to seek other options since she still has control over when she urinates, etc. My sister is meeting with our local Senior Services to see what they can suggest. If you have any suggestions or can enlighten us in anyway on this matter it would be appreciated.
Thanks & God Bless.
