The ALS community deserves transparency, so we need your help contacting your legislators to request a congressional hearing be held with the FDA to discuss ALS and ALS therapy development. Join us by taking action! bit.ly/3svvAXT

16 yrs after his diagnosis, Augie Nieto is still involved in the day-to-day work toward the next promising ALS treatment. He knows we are very close to a breakthrough. Augie may not be able to talk. However, he’s still the most magnetic voice in the room. rb.gy/qztiqj

This year we were reminded of the simple pleasures of just being with others. We were reminded that our critical work is not done until we have changed the landscape of ALS. Thank you for your continued support over the last nearly 17 yrs! We wish you joy, happiness & health! ❤️

I’m a lucky man. I can’t imagine where I would be without the unconditional love of my incredible soul mate and wife, Lynne. Love is what makes me wake up and want to change the world each day, and it keeps me motivated and focused on my Quest to cure ALS.

We’ve been privileged to call Mitch and Janine friends. I met 𝐌𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐨𝐦 shortly after my diagnosis and he has been a steadfast supporter ever since.  More importantly, he's an incredible human being that we love and learn from every day. Thank for stopping by!

Traveling over any holiday weekend is never easy. This is especially true for people living with ALS. Our friend Andrea was kind enough to share some advice for others looking to safely and comfortably travel while living with ALS. als.net/news/traveling…

We are counting our blessings this holiday season, because we have had a few hiccups this year… We are thankful for spending time with our family, our friends who have stayed by our side, and are a constant reminder of how precious life is, despite the difficulties.

Today is my 65th birthday, and I’m thankful to be here. The past 7 months have been the most difficult of the almost 18 years since I have had ALS. I have felt despair & hopelessness and have gone to some really dark places. Read more here: rb.gy/hpqpxx
