Synopsis

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as "Lou Gehrig's Disease," is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. On today's HearSay, host Cathy Lewis is joined by doctors, advocates, and caregivers who continue the search for new developments in the treatment of this debilitating disease. We'll also discuss the local resources available to our region's ALS patients and how those options are helping them maintain their independence.
