like all the others, sorry to meet you here but welcome!
The next weeks, months will be an emotional roller coaster. Try to go with the flow, expect
fear, anger, bitterness, and a new awareness of life. I have found that being active here on
these forums has helped me in way I cannot explain, but you will see.
before trying miracle cures, etc., ask here, go to alsuntangled dot com.
Lastly, anxiety can be debilitating so beware.
Lastly, lastly DON'T FALL, take vitamins, keep your calorie intake up, and stay away from sick
people, especially w/ respiratory problems.
also remember the basic PALS rules:
------
#1 don't fall
#2 don't hang around sick people, at 1st sign of respiratory issue go to doc
#3 conserve energy, rest, never push it, try to relax
#4 stay warm
#5 take vitamins
ALS is about living, not dying!
-----
ok well, we take what we get and be glad for what we have
------
If you have not yet, go to youtube and search "ALS ABC" and watch all 3. I sent those to
friends and family, too.
Kind regards and warm welcome,

ALS sucks, but It Is What It Is ... and someone else has it worse so I'll try not to complain today!
