For Newly Diagnosed
Communicating an ALS diagnosis
There is no easy way to tell family and friends you have been diagnosed with ALS. And there is no right or wrong way, either. Individual personalities, family circumstances, and the degree to which the symptoms are visible can all play a role in when, how, and with whom to share the news.

There’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ gift that works for everyone, but there are special ways to say “I am thinking of you.” The holiday season can be a perfect time to do just that. We recognize that it’s not always easy to know how to help, so we recently canvassed our regional managers and our online community for their gift ideas.
