Hi Everyone. Hope this finds all of you doing well. I just thought I would give you a little update about how my dad is doing with ALS. Funny story first, on our christmas tags he wrote from Dad and ALS. I was really glad he still had his sense of humor. Ok here is the yucky stuff!
Every day he is having more progression of his symptons. He is having trouble walking now and can hardly move his right hand/arm any more. Due to this he is having a hard time putting on his shoes and little things like that. My Mom told me today that he had a hard day and could not get his shoe on until 1pm. I guess he tried all morning to do this.If anyone has any sugestions on what we could do to make this easier please let me know. Also, who do we contact to get him something to help him get around easier. He can't even go to my daughters program at school because it is to far of a distance for him to walk even using his cane.
Thanks for the support!
