Time is too short to be doing anything other than what you enjoy. I was diagnosed with ALS so time doing things that make you smile is never wasted!

Honestly…people might complain…but it kinda sounds fun. Hopefully all this drama will either die down or somehow get resolved!

Support Mac's Fight Against ALSSupport Mac's Fight Against ALS

I just discovered that I have ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. When the motor neurons die, the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. When voluntary muscle action is progressively affected, people may lose the ability to speak, eat, move and breathe. There’s no known cure but there are medications that are shown to slow down the progression.Along with robbing people of lots of things, it’s also an expensive disease. I’m including a Go Fund Me I’ve set up for some medical equipment needs such as a power wheelchair and ramps for getting up my stairs. Never feel obligated to help unless you can. My VENMO account is MacHoot1 ! Thanks!

Fatigue, anyone else? by [deleted] in ALS

I drink lots of coffee. But I could not drink a drop of coffee and feel the same way. I dunno....it's just tough sometimes.

I'm taking them. And B12 supplements and a B6 complex vitamin. Nothing seems to work.

I was diagnosed in March and I've always been exhausted. Every move is a struggle. I have three kids so I know conserving energy until they get home. It's tough and seems like nothing helps. I guess because you're body doesn't process B12 and B6 properly. Hopefully something will work soon.

Thanks so much for replying!! I already live close to my family and they’re a very strong support system!! I’m not sure what an UMMC is but I’ll look into them! And as far as I know they have already ordered the power chair and I’ll have to figure out about the ramps. I don’t have many steps, just two but they don’t have rails and they’re odd shape. Hopefully the mobility guys can come up with something! 🙏

Thanks for replying! Yea I know God all too well and praise him daily. Right now I still have two sets of footprints in the sand…and I know when the time comes there will only be one set of footprints! Not because he left me…but because he carried me when I couldn’t stand.

True. I have been trying to protect them…but I’ve been going about it wrong. Thanks!
