God Bless You Kyle and Katie. It's so sad to see someone so young having to deal with this awful disease. With still so much life ahead of, and then to be given new's like this. my heart breaks for you and your beautiful wife, and daughter's.

Unfortunately - I've seen as a nurse working in a large hospital more cases of neurological symptoms mimicking the same issues that you have presented with no two pathways are the same. One positive aspect of slowing the progression or declining mobility is when the person continues to focus on the greater of the good. I hope one day soon a cure will shine on you sooner than later..

My husband had Mnd in 2001 and I feel for you. You are inspirational. Keep the awareness of this awful disease going. I hope and pray every day for a cure .

I know a guy that I kinda grew up with in the school days, played football with him in middle school and high school, and he was a captain for the varsity team back then. He went on to play for a famous college and then was shortly picked up in the NFL. His career, his dreams was cut short thanks to ALS. It's not easy seeing people begin to lose their form. My mother died from something similar. Progressive MS.

Sorry for your loss

I’ve noticed that injury often triggers ALS.

[@bms77]

Yea I’ve noticed a lot of “active” people (sports players etc) seem to get it.. thats an interesting point you bring up.

Thanks so much Dr Alaho Olu on KZbin first of all for who you are as a person thank you for the wonderful work that you do for people in general no matter where you are I will always listen to your podcast and refer people to you because you care about people and the human body I listen to other people but you talk about the true disturbances disorders that means things that are out of order in the human system thanks 🙏 for curing my Amyotrophic lateral Sclerosis disease (ALS).

[@hoosfan29]

Please stop.

[@annetteslife]

I think he has the same version of ALS as Steve Gleason and Stephen Hawkings

[@og9839]

Yes, he said he had the slow progression type

[@4dchessplayer516]

no, Steven hawking had a version no one really has, where it complexity stopped progression

[@annetteslife]

@@4dchessplayer516 thank you

[@emonsvlogtv1735]

[@ghirardellichocolate201]

Apply some NE nail lacquer on your chin.

[@firebellymel5557]

He died jan 2022. He fought 7 years.

[@SlaveOfAllahTheRestorer]

she seems to happy I smell life insurance check coming thru

[@annetteslife]

Hamza Hussein that is very rude so do not be an ass

[@kec26ferg]

He’s my family that’s rude as fuck to say.

[@bigbrycm6]

Kayla Connors why did they separate? Could Katie his wife not deal with all the stress anymore and taking care of him?

[@kec26ferg]

Bryce Nelson idk the reason it could be just stress they have 2 young kids as well. I don’t think it’s appropriate though to talk/ask about it on KZbin where anyone can see

[@bigbrycm6]

Kayla Connors just saying it looks bad because A) she took a vow when she got married saying for better or for WORSE. And B) if you look at Kati’s Facebook page, she’s all smiling and enjoying the single life while her husband is dying. Meanwhile her husbands Facebook page is sad to look at especially without his wife there. Not a good look and cold hearted.
