Thanks for the info and I'm aware of the local ALS support group. I work full time days so I can't get to the meetings Eric won't go without me. Anyway I wish I could meet with other people but he doesn't like me to go without him and he doesn't like to go out. I don't have friends and I feel very trapped.Myownself - I just checked to make sure - the closest ALS clinic from Bellingham is in Seattle (90 miles away) at Virginia Mason Hospital - (for non-VA patients). On this Thurs (Oct 9th) the local Evergreen ALS chapter is meeting noon - 1:30pm at the Peace Health Education Bldg at the far east end of Squalicum Way (East of the main hospital). You might come just for your own peace of mind & support.
Today he said he might go to a doctor on Tuesday, my next day off, or hopefully make an appointment for next week if that doesn't work. He's lost a lot of weight (more than 80#) recently and that's what is finally concerning him, he is wasting away.
How do i grieve for my husband friend lover companion for more than 27 years.
