I'm new to this forum...my husband was given his diagnosis last month when I was out of the country on a cycling tour. I feel terrible that I wasn't there with him - I thought it was something minor. His current diagnosis is non-specific MND but he is telling me of his symptoms and I believe he has ALS. I am heartbroken and can't seem to function right now. He is in denial for now and is going to his GP to discuss what he thinks is arthritis in his hand today. The look of fear on his face and the thought of him suffering is killing me from inside, and it is difficult for me to deal with his denial. I am trying to reduce my work pressures in the meantime. Just wanted to reach out to others who are going through this cruel disease so I don't feel so alone and lost.
