In the hospice, I'm often showered and dressed by male carers - odd at first but, hey ho, I'd rather not stay in the same PJs for 2 weeks. 😏🙂😘Diagnosed 03/2007. Sporadic Definite ALS/MND Spinal (hand) Onset.

Ellie - still just about independently washing and dressing. But my physio does my bra after my sports massage. Was very unnerving the first time, but I'm sure I will get used to all these things.Diagnosis confirmed as atypical ALS Jan 2022 (age 46) after several years misdiagnosed.

I can't offer much to the discussion, but it brings back happy memories of how I mastered undoing a bra with one hand in my younger daysHi, I'm Eddie.
Started with wobbly left ankle in Nov 2020. Diagnosed 22 Oct 2021, confirmed by 2nd opinion 4 days later.
Full time powerchair user. Overnight NIV. PEG'ed but still eating. Voice banked but still talking.
Still wondering what the future will bring.
