"Like any bride-to-be, I’m counting down the days to my wedding. With our big day just a few months away, Steve and I are making guest lists, picking menus and debating about whether to go with a DJ or a band. We are just like any other couple, madly in love and excited to celebrate our marriage with a close group of family and friends. What makes us different from other couples is that Steve has ALS and we know that growing old together will not be in the cards." - Lynn Hogan

I just found this and it brought me to tears. I have ALS but it's still in the early stages and the amount of work my wife has to do because I can't is amazing. You are an angel and an inspiration.

Hi Lynn, I completely understand and feel for you, because the neurologist had diagnosed my husband with ALS on 12/30/19. He's currently losing some muscles. I'll be my husband's care giver and wife. Lynn, you have done an outstanding job, taking care of your hubby. This is our true testament of the wedding vows, "in sickness and in health..." We just have to take one day at a time, because we really don't know what tomorrow will bring. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, and today is a gift. So enjoy this gift today. Thank you so much for sharing.

Hi Lynn, you and I share the same story. I met the love of my life in July 2017. He started having symptoms in November of 18 and was finally diagnosed in Dec. 2017. I felt the same way you did. I would never leave his side. We married on Sept. 1 2018. It is a scary and sad journey you and I are on. I just wanted you to know you are not alone.

I am a respiratory therapist and work in home care. Unquestionably, both those with ALS and his/her family are amazing souls. There are no words to describe the dedication and love that these families have for each other.

This brought me to tears because I am also a caregiver to the love of my life who has ALS. Also like you, I fear the day he is no longer with me, and my heart goes out to you. It is so very hard and probably the hardest thing to watch a loved one go through. I wish you all the best, and you are an earth angel. ❤
