It seems everywhere I turn there is a new diagnosis of ALS. I have had so many people including friends & family members that know or have known someone with ALS.
I saw another football player on the news tonight that has ALS. My son came home this evening & told me there is a guy in his class that was talking about his mom having ALS.
One of my close friends died of ALS in 2002. I do not believe ALS is that rare of a disease anymore.
I have read that there are 20,000-30,000 people with ALS in the US. I just believe there are MANY more cases than that. To me it looks like an epidemic!
