Hi everyone. I know these questions are unanswerable but I guess I just want to hear people’s experience. During the summer of 2017 my dad started noticing his balance was off. He had a few falls into September and after a bad fall in nyc he decided to go see a neurologist. In March 2018 he was diagnosed with als and since then his walking has gotten progressively worse. He can walk with a cane but it’s very labored and he would really benefit from a walker. He has some weakness in his upper body but nothing that’s changing his day to day activities. My question really is, if his legs progressed as fast as they did, is that an indication of how he will continue to progress? He hasn’t shown any sign on breathing or swallowing issues. Thanks for all your support
