We encounter so much negativity in live with ALS than I thought I would share something positive that has happened with me. At my last visit with my specialist, she told me that I am experiencing what very rarely occurs in ALS and that is an arrestment in a progression of the disease. I have been living with ALS since 2000. I am essentially quadriplegic (very little movement from the neck down) and my lung volume test is at 47%. But this has not changed at all in the past three or four years. Things could change in a heartbeat I know, but this certainly gives hope. Hope that we rarely hear of in ALS.
