My husband just passed away a month ago from this terrible disease.. he had it for two years.. As his caretaker I know first hand how devastating it is.. I wish you the best!

If we could approve a COVID vaccine on an emergency basis because COVID is deadly, WHY CAN'T WE USE THAT AS A MODEL FOR THIS ALS TREATMENT BECAUSE ALS IS ALSO DEADLY?

I’m 24 years old my husband is in the Air Force and I have two beautiful boys a two-year-old and a seven-month-old I noticed the changes in my body after having him and just hoping for some type of breakthrough so I can have the ability to be here for my two babies

As a previous health advocate for MDA- I know the road families living with ALS go down, and it’s nauseating knowing that this drug is showing such great signs. Let’s get NurOwn to fast forward and let patients living with ALS take NurOwn now- sign a waiver noting that the patient knows it is not at the full trial stage. Whatever it takes- give these families Hope!!!

I'm an Los Angeles City Firefighters wife, and I'm here with you and your family! Because WE ARE FAMILY!!!

He's only 29, this is so sad.
-
But sadly when the trial is over all the patients receiving the treatment stop getting it. FDA needs to approve this drug asap!

As an RN for 30 years, he is right, they have great meds for HIV and cancer, and have some for ALS but restrict patients from having access to it. Something is wrong with the system here. This disease is a death sentence in less than 5 years after diagnosis. Something has to change.

15/8/22 , In the uk we call it MND motor neuron disease. I am a 74 years old male, my mnd started in 2006 at age 58. I wasn't diagnosed until 2015.

If there is a way to create this quicker pathway to access this new treatment — I am so there to support that movement! Something has to be done.

God bless Eric! I lost my twin 2 years ago to ALS and not a day goes by I don't miss her! This plays no favorites and we had not seen this in our family before. She was 56 when we lost her and she had this about 3 years we believe. She denied her reality and would not see a Dr to confirm til the last 3 months of her life. She was offered meds to help her live a little longer but she said no to it.
