How to deal with family or friends who are in denial about your ALS
Sometimes friends and family aren’t so helpful – – especially if they don’t believe you have ALS. Maybe it’s a spouse who’s in denial or a well-meaning friend who wants you to try off-beat treatments.
Have you had this experience? What did you do? What suggestions do you have for others?

In this situation, I would think it is most important for the patient to learn as much as possible about ALS, treatments, and how to live with it. Then, questions from family and friends can be addressed and discussed without coercion.
