Hi Dana:
I know that this looks like a long road... and a bumpy one too, but you seem to have the outlook necessary to carry it off for your dad. If he's lucky, maybe he's been misdiagnosed... if not, you will find all the encouragement you need here to help with the day to day issues that will come up.
Good Luck

T.

Hello Lieselotte,
This is what the doctor's report stated for my dad's diagnose. They did not outright tell him he had ALS, I had to call and ask bluntly if that is what it meant. I have read the posts on Lyme disease and wonder if he should have a test done. For so many years his work has placed him in wooded areas, he was involved often in lot clearing, I don't know.
