Diane Huberty, Certified Neurology RN, may be the longest surviving female Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patient.

Steve Wells was regarded as the new longest-living
Steve Wells: Canada’s longest-living ALS survivor)
patient subsequent to the passing of Stephen Hawking . . . Nurse Huberty and Mr. Wells (I was unable to discern Mr. Wells's symptom onset date from the intel on the web) lived at least forty-five years with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis; I have found less than twenty patients in the "over twenty years" category, so both of these patients are profoundly rare and thus not statistically significant (among at least four hundred patients, although Mr. Wells in not in my study). I have Nurse Huberty's survival at 16,715 days: there are likely very few candidate females thus Nurse Huberty may have survived the longest among female Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patients . . . maybe someone has an insight on this issue?
