Not dead yet.

Sometimes your plans and life don't quite mesh.

But your spirit can endure.

I would like to think I would continue to live my life like he does, but in reality if I ever got diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease I think I would probably check out while I still had the ability to do so.

ALS is an extraordinarily painful way to check out.

My dad had ALS ... actually, not painful per se. Uncomfortable and weird - aside from knowing you are gonna die, etc. the muscle twitches are really annoying.

A co-worker's father was just diagnosed with ALS last week. I guess he went in for something else and was told.

One of the things that really bothered my Dad for years was that it was undiagnosed, even though he saw plenty of specialists... the ALS diagnosis was a "well, we've tested everything else possible, so process of elimination says it is this"
