Because Larry has ALS they have waved the 2 drs gave their immediate approval and the 10 days period was waved. They are coming to our house Wednesday night. Our children will be there and a nurse who is also a very close friend. He is at peace with his decision and even has some colour in his...

Thank you all for the support. It means a lot. We’ve only been dealing with this for less then 2 years yet some of you have been going thru this for so much longer and I can’t believe how strong you are. Today I cried. All day long. I painted my cupboards for no reason other then I needed to do...

Thank you for what you said. I’m really sorry you’re familiar with this topic. I was always on the fence about suicide. This disease has taught me a lot about ppl. Our health system and how much help there is for some and not others. It’s also taught me that some of the equipment we are using...

3 negative emgs congrats you don’t have ALS. Take care but I don’t think this is the forum for you. Once your dr actually gives you a diagnoses I’m sure you’ll find the proper forum to be at. good luck

i suggest you stop doing research and listen to your drs. It sounds like the more your reading the more your developing symptoms. And your symptoms are all over the place. That is NOT how ALS begins. But your mind can create many different symptoms and your body can manifest them almost...

Can someone tell me a bit about als and how it may effect the mind. Lately I’ve noticed larry doesn’t seem to always be processing what I’m saying. Or we are watching tv and I’ll go out of the room and come back and he’s laughing and I said what was said and he stops and looks at me and says I...
