The research and time that all of the members of this board put into this nasty disease truly inspires me. I sometimes feel like some on the board may get annoyed with me being here, as I have been given an unknown motor neuron disease diagnosis, and not official ALS diagnosis. Some days I am so down with the severity of my symptoms, but reading about do it yourself research combined with medical research gives me hope to move on along. I am a lawyer by trade licensed in Florida and want to provide PRO Bono legal services to those affected with MND.I am also going to thoroughly conduct my own research so maybe I can contribute to this board. I do not dismiss the medical profession but do feel that as Pals and MND sufferers we must take research into out own hands. I am looking for friends on this board to give me a reason to get up everyday to fight as hard as I can. Like many of us, I was given a cold you have six months to live without a vent. My response was well I guess that is why they were created so that I may live. These diseases will humble the strongest of souls, but the members here give me so much hope,
