Hi,
My husband was diagnosed last Thursday with ALS. His is mostly in the bulbar area and has already affected his breathing. The put him on a Bipap machine, suction machine and trying to get the ok from ins for a coughalator. We went to the Gastro dr today to see about a feeding tube which they are putting in on Tuesday. We can't believe so much as happened so rapidly. He just starting have a little slurring in May. Quite a shock to us but God had given us such strength through it all. I wish the best for all of you that are struggling with this disease and have been for a while. We have so many people praying for us and we can really tell it. I am sure we will back to post with many questions but right now we are just kind of numb.
