I read all the condolences that i received for the forum from time to time. I keep looking at the names i check the in memory pages and see so many of the same names. We are losing so many, my heart just breaks. I wish there was more I could do. More the Doctors would do. This is such a unfair journey that we all have seemed to take, and i feel we are forgotten. ALS just isn't something people know about. Sure the drug companies can make a pill that will help "get it up" and they can make yet another cream for a pimple or so on. But if "WE" and I say that as a former CAL... go to the ER, no matter what we went for, it was ALWAYS due to ALS. Makes me so mad. They treated us like lepers. Seems we could do something... I just hate it, that so many of our loved ones are passing. You hear all about AIDS, and CANCER but what about us? I am going to do something about it, I have to. I decided to go to nursing school, cuz I felt I made a difference for Bran, I have a voice, I will make people listen... who's with me? They can't ignore us all. If you have any ideas.. please share.
