I have sad news to share with our ALS News Today Forums members – – one of our long-time members, Kathryn Jean Stitz, “Kathy”, age 46, passed away on Friday, February 10, 2023.
Kathy was diagnosed with ALS in 2020 and joined our forums community soon after. She was an active member, joining in with discussions and offering support to her fellow forum members. She was highlighted in the forum’s annual ALS Awareness Month 2021 Spotlight on May 3, 2021. (https://alsnewstoday.com/forums/forums/topic/als-awareness-month-2021-spotlight-kathy-stitz/)
“Time is precious when you have ALS. You have to make the most of each day and appreciate and enjoy things whenever possible.” Kathy Stitz
I admired Kathy’s warrior spirit and her willingness to bare and share her feelings with us about having ALS disrupt her life.
On behalf of the members of the ALS News Today Forum, our thoughts, and condolences are with Kathy’s family during this difficult time. May she rest in peace.

Dagmar,
Thank you for posting about Kathy’s passing. ALS is a horrible disease as we all know. Kathy and I were able to write and share information about ALS and our lives up until January. She was very kind and supportive when I was diagnosed in December. I will miss her and her input to the ALS online community.Kathy, rest in peace my friend. May you fly high, run and enjoy all the things heavenly possible.
Amanda
