    A daughter's role reversal

    Hi My mom was diagnosed with bulbar onset ALS in Sept 2008. She's 63 years old. The disease has progressed much more rapidly than we had expected. It's been really tough for us, as a family, to see. Generally her mood has been pretty optimistic but it's almost scary. She really doesn't talk...

    Patient lift options

    Still hanging in 5 years after diagnosis I've had plenty of experience with different lifts. The most common being the Hoyer type. Always a pain because they require too much space to maneuver and you have to store them somewhere between uses. I switched to a portable overhead lift last year...

    Hoyer Lift

    Looks like my husband is going to need a Hoyer lift immediately. From being able to walk up and down the hall with his walker and minimal assistance a week or two ago, I can't even get him up out of his recliner or bed now without help. Have had to call neighbors and friends 6 times over the...

    No roll in shower...what to do?

    How do you bathe a PALS when you don't have a roll in shower and they can no longer help with transfering? Can you use a Hoyer lift (providing one can maneuver it in a small bathroom) to get them onto a shower bench? What about when they can no longer sit up by themselves? Do you tie them to...

    Wishing for a crystal ball (if not a miracle)

    My 62-year-old mother was diagnosed in Jan '08. She was sure she wouldn't live to see my second baby (born 5/1/08) but she has hung in there. Now she only has a little movement of her head and is having trouble getting any food or drink down. She doesn't want any artifical feedings or a vent...

    Falling apart

    My mom has advanced ALS and I have learned that things can always get worse. I am not my mom's primary caregiver, in fact I don't do that much hands on stuff with her because I have a 3-year-old and a 9-month-old. I feed her when I'm around, buy her foods and drinks she likes, take care of phone...
