Hello all - just from viewing the threads this looks like a wonderful site for questions/answers and support!
My mom first started having troubles early this year - was diagnosed with Bulbar Palsy in June. Her speech has declined since the onset and has choking/coughing espisodes during meals and it seems within the last month or so she has had balance problems with lots of falling and is now relying on a cane. She is still mentally sharp with her same sense of humor although I have noticed depression has set in. My inclination is that when we return back to the dr. that this diagnosed is going to turn worse. What else can I expect?
God bless you all for dealing with this!
