We lost my Dad after a short & intense battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) & I still miss him terribly. Tell others how you feel while you have the chance.

He is sorely missed, but I can feel his presence. Love you, Dad.

    I am so, so sorry for your loss. As a nurse, I have always said that ALS is one of the worst/hardest diagnoses that a person could receive, or go through with a loved one. So incredibly difficult and so incredibly sad.

    {{{HUGS}}} to you Matt.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I am sorry, man. My dad's buddy died from ALS a few month's ago. It was long though... Several years... Very sad.
