Hi Cheryl and welcome to Neuro Talk..specifically to this ALS forum. I copied and pasted your introduction here so I could reply to it. This forum is read by multitudes of people...compassionate people and probably some curious people too.

I just wanted to say Hi and let you know that I "heard" you.

Smile I'm new to neurotalk
hi I've recently joined and want to introduce myself. I was diagnosed August of 06,my progression has been more or less quick. since around that time I have lost all use of my legs, my left arm is almost gone, my neck muscles can't hold up my head anymore, my swallowing is weak, I have a peg, I have to use my bipap 24/7 now. my speech is now getting weak. I try to keep positive and still do quite a bit of routine household chores in a powerchair and I still have use of my right arm with arm braces.

I am really interested to read the dietary issue. How would you or where would you suggest I go for guidance on this issue. Thanks for your post. I am totally new here, Richard.

Love Ideas, Encouragement and Laughter.
Today, I am doing fine. I can ride my bike, just bought a stationary one It gets me exercising in the rain and cold and I love the aerobic work out.
I am continuing with my film, photography and writing. I am editing a feature length Doc but finding my hands don't always like the mouse. I continue to photograph but need to pay attention. My writing is a god send, I blog often and love it. Essays, my memoir and other 'stuff'. I am able to slowly walk round the block and do better on uneven surfaces such as grass. I can still drive but pay attention to tiredness.
