Hi everyone
I wanted to start trying to find out any and all info I can on ALS. My mom was diagnosed in Feb.this year 07 and is having a real hard time excepting this diagnosed. she started with ALS in her right leg with the drop foot and no muscle tone. Now its traveling to her left foot and leg. Her mental state of mind is going down hill FAST! I try to encourage as best I can,but I am not sure how or if I can bring her mental mind up to cope with this diagnosed. Can anyone help with this matter? Our first support group is not till July.
worried and upset daughter
