Very very tough way. I was shocked and pretty upset when I heard, but it got a lot worse when I read the wikipedia article on ALS. A part of me hopes it goes quick for him.
Hoping strongly for a misdiagnoses and he turns out fine, but if it really is ALS, I don't want him to suffer a long and miserable death where he can feel and watch his body shut down around him, while his mind is fine and unaffected. He wakes up at the crack of dawn and walks 5 miles every morning, retired about 20 years ago but has worked 2 part time jobs every day since retiring. He's not the type to be able to take anything laying down. It's going to be tough, especially for my dad. They talk on the phone every day and are very very close. |

I'm not the praying type, but good thoughts and positive mojo headed your way. damn, man. losing my gramps was a tough experience for me, hope yours goes in a way that is as painless as possible for you AND your family (though obviously, it would be better if it was a misdiagnosis).
