When my husband was diagnoised in 1999, he was 44 years old. He was considered young to get this disease, now reading the stories on the forum, people are in their 20's,
how sad is this, why the governments in all our countries do not repond for more research do we have to wait till a politcian or president or a queen to get this disease to get their attention.
I know we all here do our parts to help raise funds for research, but we neeed more goverment help.
Just venting, I am just sick to here young one's having ALS with small children, at least in our case our sons where all grown up, when Gary got the disease. I am sure my stress level would have been so high if my kids where young. For all the real young caregivers please hang in there for your love ones. Vent or get lots of knowlege from the group here, as you learn, and you can see steps of the disease you have went through, or will go through.
