My good friend, Dennis, was just diagnosed with ALS. He has a sweet wife and two children. I’m praying that a cure will be discovered – quickly!

Hi Gaby, I’m wheelchair bound and lift assisted. I figure I
have five months left. ALS is racing through my body.

I just got dianosed with MND/ALS…stuff is happening…my family is freaking out…any more pixs on current condition and stages leading up to…I need to see and understand to be able to accept and deal with it…I’m hoping it is just a bad dream…maybe an allergy/ medicine counter action/ anything….I’m thankful, I may have time to say good bye and finish things around…focusing on correcting my mistakes, faults, etc… my time is in God’s hands now…keep me and my family in your prayers…thanks

I know only too well how difficult it is to sit by and feel helpless because nothing can stop ALS – not yet anyway.

For Simon and his family, it’s all about quality of life now – and having good friends who care makes all the difference. Spend time with Simon and enjoy your time together – that is the best thing you can do. All the best,

I friend of mine has been affected by this disease and I am very sad for him. I am trying to do my best to help him out by encouraging to program in projects I have (he’s a developer by the way).
I wish there were something I could do for him to make this disease to stop.
He’s in his 30s, he’s a wife and a couple of little kids. I ran into this blog and found it important so I wanted to leave his story here. His name is Simon.
Thanks for the blog and for the chance

I was so very saddened to hear about the loss of Lyle. I was fortunate enough to have known Lyle for many years. Lyle and I attended Jr and Sr high School together and we graduated together from LSS in ‘85. I also had the pleasure of meeting his wife once, as I met them both for a drink at a local spot in Edmonton, as he was there with his wife for a convention. Lyle, you will be greatly missed, and I am a better person for knowing you!
Sicerely,
Jim Williamson,

Both my son and daughter attend preschool with Ethan and I do remember greeting Lyle with his son many times while he was still able. Taylor went to Ethan’s b-day party and I had a wonderful conversation with such a warm and spirited man. I pray that all the family is managing as best as possible; no words can give the peace desired but hopefully a little glimmer of comfort in this difficult time. Thinking of you all.
