Hi there,
My mum has just been diagnosed with ALS this week and I just wanted to get as much information that i could. I have been reading through lots of web pages with "medical" info on it, but wanted to get some advice from people who are living with this disease and know more than just the medical facts.
Is there anything I can do for my mum? Any herbs/remedies/lifestyle choices/foods etc that can help? Is there anything to make her life easier? She is still mobile, walking with a walking stick or walker depending on where she is going. She can no longer drive, and her speech is becomming really slurred. Is there anything i need to know that I won't find on these websites?
I really would appreciate any replies. Very scared and confused at the moment.
Thanks so much in advance!
Emma
