For Robert's ALS
Donation protected
In November 2018, I’ve been diagnosed with ALS, Lou Gehrig’s disease. It is a progressive neurological disorder that has no cure. In my case, the disease is progressing rapidly. I’ll be posting updates on how I’m doing on a regular basis, and I will check the site frequently, so if you’d like to be in touch that is the best way.
We can’t stop it, but all of you who care can send their positive thoughts and love. It really does make a difference for me.
It is a constant battle for ALS patients to receive the support they need from Medicare, MediCal and private medical insurers. Some important devices and services are not covered, and others, very expensive ones, are only partly paid for; not to mention things like necessary modifications to our home. When you add in the fact that caregiving is a full time job for Christian, our economic sources are stretched very thin. If you wish to help and can afford it, we can use your assistance to help pay for expenses now and the new items and services that will be needed later.
