    Wow John, that's very interesting, I think it will work for Pals who have difficulties walking.

    Inability to Unfold Fingers

    Hey Katekath, I have got my Oval-8 yesterday and it is amazing. Simple, smooth, light and cheap. Go for it. It is very handy but you need to get the right size

    Hi i'm new at this .I have had ALS 17 years.

    Wow Cindy, then we can discuss about art and maybe have a photography session. By the way are you still working or already quit what about your conditions? did they figure out whether it is ALS related or not?

    Hi i'm new at this .I have had ALS 17 years.

    No no John I didn't mean virtual contact, I was wondering if you had any real contact with other Pals before joining the internet forums. For me It could have been very difficult and scarry without internet and up till now I haven't met any Pals (face to face) even though I am looking forward...

    Hi i'm new at this .I have had ALS 17 years.

    Hey John, so far I still can walk talk eat and breath on my own, I have weakness mostly in my hands (fingers) and in my legs walking downstairs. Have you been meeting Pals for the past 17 years?

    Hi i'm new at this .I have had ALS 17 years.

    Hey John, what about your current conditions? are you still able to walk? By the way Denise I am 29 and have had ALS for 3 years now, so maybe telling your son about people his age living with the disease could be a first step. 'He is not alone in this'

    Anyone having weird feeling in legs? Like electricity?

    hmmmmmmm, you know sometimes when I am shaving or trimming using my right hand (the weakest one) I feel a kind of very quick and painful electric-shots just like the 'electromyogram' so I change the position then it goes away.

    What kind of hobbies do you guys find helpful?

    Hey Sironside, So far, Digital photography is working for me, it is like hunting. So where ever I am I look from a different perspective to things around me and take loads of photos then I go back and download them to my computer then chose some and upload them online.

    What do you say when...

    So far I am dealing with the situation the same as Sharonca and Liz. But I have also noticed that lots of people hesitate to ask to avoid disturbing so I try to be more open about the situation. I guess lots of people do care but simply they don't know how to deal with it.

    text on site too small - can it be changed to bigger somehow?

    Hey RJG, There is an option (shortcut) to zoom in and out the page you are visiting, So far for Macintosh it is ' apple +' for zoom in and 'apple -' for zoom out. I am not sure for the PC but it should be 'Alt +' and 'Alt minus' Take care Omar

    Questions about fasiculations

    Hey Guys, So far I have heard of people who have been living for more than 15 years with ALS as well as people who have lived only for 3 months with it so it seems that it may be so slow and very very fast. Some people also get diagnosed right away and with others it takes up to a year and...
