My heart is broken, and my tears are flowing. Bye Richard. If the family needs anything, I am close by in St. Catharines. Casey

Atsugi, Great advice.

Lost One, I hope my 16 year old son feels as you do. As a parent in a similar situation as your Mom, I'm sure she is proud of the mature way you are handling this. You seem like a good kid, I'd be proud if you were my daughter. Hang in there, Casey

Your husband may be right. Then again, he may be wrong. I asked my ALS Dr. if it could be from pesticides? He said maybe, I asked if it could be from black mold? he said maybe. I asked if it could be from a virus? He said maybe. I then stopped asking "Could it be from..." questions, because no...

Sarah, I know from experience how emotionally draining your interview must have been. Very proud of you for staying strong and keeping the fight going. It's amazing the compassion that shows up out of nowhere, just when we think humankind is doomed. We are reminded how wonderful people can...

I love the heated conversation, it shows spunk and a will to live. We are all looking for the same results, treatment, and a cure. Keep it clean, play fair, and protect yourselves at all times. On a side note, as someone affected by ALS in Ontario, my family, and I wish to thank Richard for...

Hang in there Fitz.

Sharlene, I hope he gets his appetite back, it's important to keep his weight/strength up. I have had the drug a few weeks, but haven't started taking yet. Little scared of the possible side effects. It's silly, but I guess starting the meds would be an admission of diagnosis for me. Still...

LOL. Glad you're feeling better Al. Now hurry up and fix my account.

That guy's my new hero! LOL. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

What is inevitable is we will find a cure for this beast. I for one want to be here when we do.

Try staying busy doing things to keep your mind off you know what. Keep doing the things you can, and when the time comes that you can't do thouse things, then adjust to find a way to do it still. Through technology, adaptation, and sheer human will, you will find a way to do more than just...

@marypat LOL. only thing i"m donning these days is a few beer and a cheese wheel (pizza). I honestly don't know where people find the time to work. I might like being retired for the next 50 years. Cheers, Happy Easter weekend all. Casey

Hi. welcome. I too have just turned 41, but unlike you, I am lucky to have some support from a ALS centre. That being said, I have found these forums to be a life saver. Please ask any questions of me, and others. Between us all, we seem to get by. My experience is only people here really...

Hi guys. I'm not going anywhere. My account is limited for some reason, so, I've only been looking around once in a while. Can post on existing treads, but that's it. Can't even change my account settings or avitar. In fact, my account started having problems when I tried changed my avitar to...
