    Sad to be here, happy to know you are here

    In January, I went for a walk when I was in Chicago for work. I was alarmed to feel my right foot drop as I walked. Nowhere in my imagination did I think it would be ALS. I got a neurologist appointment and he did some tests and sent me for first a neck and then head MRI. The report stated that...

    Help me please! I need serious advice!

    My wife’s doctor doesn’t want to place a PEG tube. Today the doctor told me I might want to get hospice involved. I’m fully wrecked crying my heart out. Here’s how things happened… My wife started showing symptoms 1/16 and was diagnosed 11/16. She lost both her legs 3/17. Things seemed to slow...

    Trilogy and saliva

    Hi, The past week or so my husband will ask me to put on the Trilogy but after a few minutes he wants it off and I immediately have to suction him but he won't put it back on. I feel that he's asking for it for a reason but just a few minutes a day isn't going to help. He won't explain to me...

    Hectic 5 weeks, hope it slows down

    With my wife's diagnosis 5 weeks ago, we have been going non stop and really hoping we don't have to keep up this pace. I'm still dealing with a broken foot so everything takes longer than I would like. First decision was to trade our fifth wheel trailer for a toy hauler version. Had to...
