Friday we went to the ALS clinic and recieved a definitive diagnosis. ALS. We had anticipated this but still held out hope it might be something else. I feel like I have been hit straight on by a brick wall.
The clinic has a good support program and we are going to get started as soon as possible. I am finding we are having to change the way we see things. Instead of planning for retirement and a life together for many years, we are now planning on ... well I think you all know what we are planniing now.
Our wedding is in 3 weeks and so we are putting all our attention on that for now. We have appointments with an attorney for the legal stuff and will be getting involved with others in our area with ALS.
All I can say, and pardon if I yell. IT ISN'T FAIR!
