Just saying welcome. Get connected to your local ALSA office. They have support group meetings once a month so you'll probably run into quite a few there.
You'll find lots of good info here as well as compassion, understanding and even humor. Don't be afraid to ask questions, no topic is off limits. Read back through some of the past threads and posts and you'll see what I mean

Welcome . I just recently joined. You'll find a lot of information & help from the people here. I don't have any support groups in my area. I'd love to start one if I could find some others in the area. So - let this be your support group.

You've got an ALS walk coming up in Evansville, looks to be ~45 min away.

go here: Indiana Chapter - The ALS Association Indiana Chapter

If a walk is that close there must be some fellow ALS folk and support nearby also; contact the walk folks on the above page and inquire.

Yes we have a team for the walk
