divorce

Hello. I hope I dont sound selfish. I really dont know what to do. My husband was diagnosed with als in 2013. He is at the later stages now but he is unrealistic. I was in the process of filing for divorce shortly before he was diagnosed [because he wsd si mean and wanted to isolate me from my...

I wanted to share this to inform you that there are things far worse than ALS alone. I was diagnosed two years ago; I am 31 years old now. Currently, I cannot use either my arms or my legs in a useful way, controlling my pc using a head tracker. I met my wife ten years ago when we were both...

Marty posted about dating, but I'm wondering about peoples experience in the opposite direction: did the reality of the diagnosis/prognosis contribute to divorce? I'm not on the verge of one, but I have seen in my life the huge pressure added to an already stressful situation, might lead to a...

How do you deal with the unthinkable when you're already battling ALS as a family? My Chaddy-Baby (my cousin I loved dearly and not that Chad was a baby- he was the older one- 20 going on 21) was recently killed in a murder/suicide. I don't I've really come to terms yet with the fact he's gone...

Its been a long time since been here. Guess you can say I have been preoccupied. Last January in 2013 my mother asked I help her - Mom has ALS. She said my father (who never cooked or cleaned before) could not help much, and he is in his 80's. So, with my husbands blessing, I traveled from...

I’m rattled. There’s no skirting the issue: my keyboard’s betrayal is shaking the core of my being. I just love typing, or I did; and for many months it has been a lifeline of communication. But too suddenly it's becoming a thing of the past. For a long time now I have been rolling along...

So today is my birthday not such a big deal other than I am alive 1 more year. But my problem lies in my A$$ and I don't mean my butt. Every holiday ie my birthday.Mothers Day and our wedding Anniversary he conveniently finds sonethibg to do so he's not here to give a gioft. SH#T a card...
