My dad was diagnosed in June, 2013. His symptoms seem to be progressing so quickly. I am trying so hard to coordinate from another state his care and benefits. We have applied for VA benefits, but they are sending him to a PCP 1 1/2 hrs away! It all seems so crazy. I have been reading these threads for months, and it seems like nothing is progressing in terms of getting him any help. He has attended the ALS/MDA Clinic in Little Rock, and I live near Dallas. I am wondering if anyone can speak specifically to LR or Dallas clinics, recommendations, etc. Also, any assistance with the VA or tips. I can contact the PVA rep, another rep for Hot Springs, and the VA directly. I would love to communicate with any others in my parents area or in DFW, trying to decide where we should all ultimately be. I know all the decisions are up to him, but I want as much knowledge as I can going into our discussions. Thanks so much!
