    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.

    I’ve noticed that injury often triggers ALS.

    So sad….seems like some who did the ice bucket challenge, was diagnosed with als shortly after. I have heard similar stories .

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