My name is Renee Rizzo and I live in Lancaster, California. I earned my BA in liberal studies in 2014, and in 2015 I started to take a state test, but started to fall. I also could not hold the steering wheel of the car and had to stop driving.

I was technically diagnosed with ALS on August 13th, 2019. However, before all this I had a bad car accident on December 16, 2007 and I broke both pelvis, my hip, my collarbone, and suffered a brain stem injury. My accident led me to a coma and now I have ALS, because I’m vulnerable to neuro degenerative diseases.
