Default Still kicking

Rama Whitlock, female, 56
ALS symptoms appeared in 1977, it took another year to get dxd after the delivery a beautiful daughter. I deteriorated at a steady pace until my diet was radically altered to eliminate dairy, grains, except brown rice, and simple sugars and fats. When I added supplements I stabilized even though symptoms are ready to continue the deterioration any time I don't follow my regimen.

Joel Cutler, 54
Symptoms started Dec04 or Jan05
DX Aug 05 limb onset. Left hand first then right.
I was monitored and given 2 years. Found Glutathione and still kicking! Deterioration slowed down immensely, was supposed to be immobile Dec05 - still functioning quite well.
Down to 1 finger on each hand to type, but still getting around on my own!

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.
