[sum1sumwhere007]

That sucks...im sorry to hear that.... everyone down the line on my fathers side of the family has died from this so i know how you feel. Hang in there!!!

[RAINBOWLIZY333]

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) aka: Lou Gehrigh's disease, is a relentlessly progressive paralyzing disease - most patients die within 2-5 yrs.

ALS is a death sentence w/no end in sight & the only way to further push for research is to get the word out. There is no known cure for ALS, but you can easily bring a thousand people the seed of hope.

PLEASE HELP SPREAD PUBLIC AWARENESS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST ALS AND HELP STRIKE OUT AND DEFEAT ALS.

My grandma had surgery on both of her feet at the same time when she was younger, survived breast cancer, and then was diagnosed with ALS in 1996 and passed away in 1998. This is a terrible disease and im praying that one day they will come up with a cure! I would never wish this on anybody!
