I’m not as loud as either of my brothers, but #ENDALS is trending and that is exactly what I spend everyday working towards. Sometimes you need to reinvent the wheel when the existing wheel will take a decade to get to its destination.
Screw ALS for the beautiful lives its stolen, ones that are fighting, & ones that aren’t ready for the freight train ahead. I hate everything about #ALS I cried into oblivion today knowing my SUPERHERO dad is tired of fighting. Let my under-eye circles be my battle scars #fuckALS
@leanne_yacyshyn My thoughts are with you, Leanne. I would give anything to take this away from you, from my dear brother, and from every person living with #ALS
“Love those around you and come together to #EndALS” -with love & gratitude to @GregGowe and his family for illuminating the #ALS fight in BC and beyond 🙏
These words from @GregGowe. Please take a moment today to read them, internalize them and to send love, strength and prayers to Greg and his family and friends.
ALS took Greg far too soon. Let’s make his ask of us real. #EndALS
@GregGowe@GregGowe go in peace. What you have experienced, no person should ever have to live through. Sending gratitude your way for the voice you brought to #ALS. I have no words beyond this. 🙏🙏🙏💗💕

This is ALS. I witness—with my sibling’s experience—exactly what @GregGowe describes here. We need to #EndALS —it is indiscriminate and yes, diabolical. No one should have to endure this. @jyduclos@adriandix@MerrimanPaul
This diabolical disease has progressed to the point where it is dangerous for me to cry, as I now choke on my own secretions / mucus. We need to #EndALS. @jyduclos@adriandix
