  • Some of you may be wondering why i haven't created any videos for a long time. The reason is because I was having issues with my voice, it started with a bit of a husky voice towards the end of 2022.
    During 2023 its started to gradually get worse, by October, i was slurring my speech. Something definitely wasn't right, and I saw a neurologist.
    After months of testing i was finally diagnosed ALS in FEB 2024. In this video I want to show you how Progressive Bulbar Palsy (branch of ALS) has affected my voice.

    I'm so sorry you are dealing with this horrible, horrible illness. I keep hoping to hear of more breakthroughs regarding ALS. It is a cruel thief. I hope you have support around you. Wishing you moments of peace.

    I think you are tremendously brave for showing the world what you are going through. My grandpa (mother’s dad) died from ALS in 1971. I am so glad that I stumbled onto to you! No pun intended! 😂

    You are a wonderful human being. Prayers being sent. It's just a tiny idea. If you can record certain words you use often and as many as possible. Instead of exerting yourself. You can use a computer to say your word, but it still can be your voice for most of it.
    I know they were talking of trials, I hope if there are if your up to it to try to get in on them.
    May God bless you and you not be in pain. Try to enjoy what beauty you can in the moment. Many say live in the moment. ❤

      Apple has this available in accessibility, under Personalized Voice. it was created for people with this and similar conditions. Wishing you the best of luck

      @BrokeTheInterweb I'm so sorry .yes I know there is . I actually had an amazing neurologist who had ALS. That's why I mentioned trials we had spoken before he left and set me up with Dr's he trusted for me. I have a rare disease that I'm on treatments for and also was in 2 car accidents with perm injuries. . I know fighting for my rights all these years has been hard, and I have totally taken an emotional hit destroying me from them . My mom just went to heaven for me. It seems like yesterday, but it wasn't. So I have a harder time doing without her, my cheerleader.
      I pray you get to squeeze in what you want in life to do, and I always pray for miracles for people to. God bless you always. I had just been scrolling that day and saw you for the first time. You're quite the man.

    I made a small donation and encourage others to do the same if they can. I wish you the best of luck and hope that your disease stops progressing, like it did for Stephen Hawking and Jason Becker. Since you are on the younger side, there is a greater probability that you will survive for 10+ years.
