I am a 64 years old man. I was diagnosed with ALS after over a year of tests. The official ALS diagnosis came with the explanation that there was no treatment adn no cure. My prognosis was a year, perhaps two at best.
My wife and I decided we were going to fight this disease, and she has done extensive research. After reaching a low in January of 2012, we started a turn-a-round. I thought I had played my last game of golf in December of 2011. I now play every chance i get, and hope to play daily, if I so choose. I have the strength and energy to do so. All I need is time, but that will come as I move toward retirement.
No one shoud ever receive a hopeless death sentence, as I did. I am not only doing better than I have in a year, I fully expect to beat this thing.
I am happy to share what is working for us with any that wish to listen.
I believe my mission is to now give hope to other ALS sufferers. God bless all that have this disease.
