I am Ann Thomson
a family member of someone living with ALS
New York
It has taken all his abilities to eat, drink, talk, walk and all his daily needs but thank God it hasn’t taken his memories, his love and his sense of humor.
Jim is my wonderful husband, he is a loving father of 6, a grandfather of 10, and a great grandfather of 1. He is a Vietnam Vet, a Marine. He was diagnosed in June of 2020 with ALS. It has taken all his abilities to eat, drink, talk, walk and all his daily needs but thank God it hasn’t taken his memories, his love and his sense of humor. He is truly a wonderful person and an inspiration for me as his caregiver. If he can “live” through this, I surely can.
Please let us live, we need to be able to have access to all drugs whether they have been approved.
