Head and Shoulders

This PSA by The ALS Society of Canada so accurately captures the reality of life with ALS.


ALS Matters

I know it’s difficult, heartbreaking to watch. I see myself and Aiden so clearly in this PSA. The reality of this disease is that it can destroy families. People just have no idea, and many/most don’t want to know. I am determined to heighten awareness about ALS. People living with ALS are basically written off, left for dead by the medical community, and sadly… by society. That just is not acceptable. People need to understand what we are up against, what we, and our families have to deal with. People need to be moved. People need to stop looking the other way. This disease needs to be stared in the face, and battled. ALS can strike anyone, any family. It IS your worst enemy. Fight it!
