My son-in-law is 35 and was recently diagnosed with ALS. He has 2 small children and has become verbally abusive to them and my daughter since the diagnosis. We understand how angry he is but not sure how to help him as he doesn't really seem to want to help himself. He will not go to anyone for help nor attend any support groups. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this situation? He doesn't want his boys to know he is sick and since they are 4 and 5 we are not really sure they would understand anyways.
