Hello, I've followed this forum for a while. Everyone on here is so helpful and honest. I've watched other ALS forums where thats not the case. Thank you for being here :-D .
My wife was diagnosed April 14th this year with ALS. 1 year ago today, give or take a week, she was walking around, singing and doing what ever she wanted, no symptoms of ALS at all. Today shes confined to an electric wheelchair relying on our son and I for everything. She can't move her arms, hands and fingers. She can still move her leggs a little bit.
My question is;
Is this the normal progression for ALS. Her neurologist still hasn't answered this question for us.
Thanks, Jon
