...other people in my position (I'm in my late 20's, incidentally), worry about getting ALS even though there's no info to suggest it is familial. I think to myself...maybe we just don't know it's familial YET...or maybe it was a mutation that will be passed genetically, or...you get the idea. Basically the glass is 95% full and I'm (occasionally) paying more attention to the 5% that is empty.
It's as if nothing else scares me -- heart attack, cancer, whatever. In other words, probably the things that will actually kill me someday I can deal with.
I definitely think I suffered some permanent psychological damage from watching my father's deterioration. Not anything that I think the leather couch will cure.
