    Do you let someone give up without a fight?

    Thank you for your response.......I have reassured my husband that I am on board with whatever he decides. I told him that I would stand by his decisions and be brave. We are the lucky ones and have had more than most will ever have. ALS cannot and will not ever truly separate us from one...

    Do you let someone give up without a fight?

    Thank you all for such kind and moving words of comfort.........I have known my husband since I was 13 years old and I don't really know who I am without him. Actually I am not me without him. ALS is a cruel disease and it will rob us of the plans we made, it will rob my children of their...

    Do you let someone give up without a fight?

    Hi all, My 47 year old husband has ALS for the past 3 years......He has now decided that he does not want any medical assistance, like a feeding tube, diaphragm pacer or any other kind of medical intervention. On one hand I think it is very brave of him, but on the other hand I don't really...

    Mother with ALS

    Oh my god, your post brought tears to my eyes......All I could think about is how unfair ALS is to everyone! You are so young to be going thru such a terrible time with your mom. My husband has ALS also and we have four children (1 - 19year old and 15 year old triplets). I wish I could make...
