Adam's ALS Story

[@DavidShadwell]

I've recently been diagnosed with ALS and I now realize that there's, so many things I took for granted. For example, walking without stumbling, eating without choking, working, being able to open your hands. I challenge anyone reading this to figure out what you want in life and keep going after it, because life can be short.

I heard you

[@jjktng]

Thank you

[@stevegardiol6973]

RIP young man. Thanks for sharing some of his story with us🙏🏼 My wife was diagnosed May 2022 after her first symptoms (drop foot) began in the summer of 2021. We had just married Halloween of 2020. Her spirit remains bright most days. Keeping a smile on her face and comfortable is the daily goal😊 She’s pretty much wheelchair bound and speech is quickly weakening 😔 We listened to some old voicemails the other day and she cried, having forgot what she use to sound like. We’re going on our second cruise in less then two months, have had many parties with friends and family, traveled to Oregon for a month, all so recently! We knew we were in for journey and adventure and she’s doing everything to go out with a bang. She is my hero🥰

[@star.cat.]

And you sound like the perfect hero husband. Wishing you both lots of love 🩷

[@bayjustin3885]

God bless. Time is short. I hope you spend it filled with love and understanding. Eat everything she wants. Go everywhere. Never argue. Always holding each other! ❤

Gosh, I wish I could've hugged him. He has a beautiful soul

I lost my cousin to this on December 27, 2007. We all miss you, Pam.

[@mkl62]

@Science Review Thank you. Ironically, today is 2-27-2021. Her birthday would have been this Monday (3-1-1958). She was diagnosed on May 5, 2005. After her birth, she was placed up for adoption. It wasn't out of selfishness. It was out of love because her birth mother was unable to care for her. My aunt and uncle adopted her when she turned one and brought her into a loving home. She passed that love on to everyone that she ever met and never met a stranger.

[@mkl62]

@Science Review She was. I wish that everyone could have known her.

[@romy4593]

Adam had great courage to share his story! My twin did not want to nor did she accept she even needed to see a Dr until bedridden and her hands were curling up! NO matter how I begged her...she saw a homeopathic quack and was taking over 100 herbal and other types of pills a day. hyperbaric chamber for 1 1/2 hours a day, infra Red sauna, activated charcoal. Colloidal silver and others...no matter what her very own twin asked her to do with getting diagnosed, I WAS REFUSED! She died miserably in an early chosen "Comfort Care and died quite painfully in two weeks! Unreal....ALS must be diagnosed as soon as possible and those people need the BEST CARE AVAILABLE! I have joined the ALS foundation as I was a care giver on weekends....most devastating loss of my life...tore me apart. I cherish very single day on earth and am at peace with her passing now. Its been 4 years!

ALS is a terrible diagnosis. I am sorry you have received it.

[@justranda1]

I cried my eyes out... what a wonderful spirit he had. I can't wait to see you in heaven one day, Adam! Thank you for sharing your story & making me aware of so much. Your voice is still heard and continues to carry great purpose. ♥✨

[@SharonBenson2674]

The one commonality that I have noticed is that people with ALS can still smile even as the disease progresses. The other is how strong and somewhat accepted they are. Sorry for your loss family and friends.

[@sharebear1129]

3 Canadians a day are diagnosed. 😲. Wow that blew me away. That's too many people. I wish we could find out how to cure this horrible disease. 😞

My father was diagnosed 4 years ago.He can't do anything for himself.He can't walk,his speech is barley understood,he drools alot and just wants to die.He hates the life he lives.It's such an awful disease.I wish he had the "I'm not going to let this disease stop me from living life" attitude but that's not the case.It's so sad and depressing to see him this way day in and day out,as I am his caregiver.I can't begin to imagine how he feels.We need to find a cure for this awful disease!

[@lindamarcia8481]

you can get rid of it with the help of Dr Ayes medication

@@lindamarcia8481 You are an ignorant bottom feeder.

[@heatherrombough6679]

It absolutely is such a heartbreaking, devastating disease. A positive attitude can only last so long when your body is being taken from you. I pray you have much needed support. Cherish your time together (as I am sure you are).

[@ALifeStoryFoundation]

It seems like people either fight like hell or let the disease determine everything. So sorry for your loss!

[@allaboutroofing2]

I can relate, I lost my dad to ALS too. I know the struggle and don't be afraid to ask for help. Caregiving is both emotionally and physically challenging with no breaks, full time, stressful and depression can set in. Do you have anyone helping? Is you father still with us?
