As my title suggests,I am not sure what I am doing here. I am not the one that has ALS my dad was diagnosed back in July and since that time my emotions have been a rollercoaster. At first I did not feel that I did not need to talk to others about what is going on with my dad, but after talking to my phyiscal therapist ( who knew how in sightful those people were!) he suggested that I find a support group in order to help myself and just feeling that I needed to find people that have either gone through this or are going through it now. As I write this post I am trying to figure out what I am hoping to gain by joining this forum and I guess I am hoping to find a way to express my feelings to people that understand. I have a great support system around me between my husband, friends and the rest of my families it's just hard to talk to them sometimes, I feel like I am constantly walking a fine line between holding my self together and breaking down sobbing on any given day. I am hoping that those of you that read this post will understand what I am trying to say even though I am not doing a great job expressing it right now.
