My father-in-law was diagnosed with bulbar ALS almost 2 weeks ago. We have an appointment Monday afternoon that is basically a conference with the family to go over any questions we may have. Truthfully, we have no idea what to ask. After his EMG the day of his diagnosis, the neurologist told him and myself to expect a significant decline in 6-12 months based on his current condition. He already has a feeding tube, so that's covered. About the only thing we have come up with so far is about continuing his medication for cholesterol with the current timeframe we have. He is already getting started on disability and will have Medicare once that becomes official. Any suggestions for other questions? Thanks
