My mom was just diagnosed with ALS and I'm curious about progression. I know that it is very personal, some people live for 20 years and some are gone in less than a year but I have no idea what constitutes rapid progression or what is considered slow progression. In November her hand felt weird, by the time of her diagnosis (April) she can't use her left hand at all, its difficult for her to use her arm, her left leg has a toe drop so she falls very often, her right hand is weakening....that seems quick to me but is it?
