This 👇. So much. #NotTodayALS
a blessing for the life you didn't choose Blessed are you when the shock subsides, when vaguely, you see a line appear that divides before and after. You didn’t draw it, and can barely even make it out. But as surely as minutes add up to hours and days, here you are, forced

More than anything, #ALS is a heart-breaking disease that can affect anyone. They're #DyingWaiting and pleading for the approval of #Nurown because #NurownWorks. We urge @US_FDA @FDACBER @DrCaliff_FDA to listen to their pleas and take action. #EndALS. @RepJenniffer @RepDonBacon
39-year-old Alan died of #ALS 18 months after diagnosis, leaving behind his wife & 1-year-old son. #ALS= 100% FATAL since 1869. You/your loved one could be next. CONGRESS, help END the @FDACBER regulatory RIGIDITY. DEMAND NUROWN be granted Accelerated Approvalwith a Phase 4

"The success of the tofersen trial teaches us a few things about ALS and ALS trials. First and foremost, the study suggests ALS is a treatable disease, and therapeutic intervention has the potential to provide clinically meaningful therapeutic effects."

I created a YouTube channel for the ALS videos I put together. I don't know if these videos will make an impact, but I've tried to get those in power to see that ALS can happen to ANYONE. They need to see our terrible suffering & be moved to act. I humbly offer this channel as
