I am Alexandra Cavaliere

living with ALS

Connecticut


I am currently 29 years old and was diagnosed with ALS in July 2020.

I am currently 29 years old and was diagnosed with ALS in July 2020 (only a few months before my wedding. in September). In August 2019, after coming back from a month-long work trip in Ireland I noticed slurring of my speech and was diagnosed with a motor neuron disease in January of 2020.

I am a corporate attorney and luckily still working. My husband and I live with our fur babies Bert, Sophie, Eliza and Deb in Cheshire, CT. My husband and I foster animals and are currently fostering a litter of kittens that will go to people with disabilities.
