ALS or "Lou Gehrig's Disease" is nasty. A friends mother just died last night from it. She was diagnosed not 9 months ago, quick downturn.

I've heard of this disease but never knew anyone that had it, and how quick it hits. Total muscle loss after 9 months. First is was a left foot wouldn't work, then the left hand. After 4 months she couldn't walk and was in a wheel chair.
