Short Bio |
I was diagnosed with ALS just this week. My father had ALS, so I was fortunate to recognize the early symptoms. I have full function now and am determined to enjoy my favorite activities (hiking, gardening) for as long as possible. I retired from a career in philanthropy and enjoy living in the NC mountains with my husband of 40 years. We are lucky to have a supportive extended family, including 3 children and 5 grandchildren living within a couple hours drive. I’m so happy to find this forum!
