ALS has taken my strength and my voice but I can still fly down a mountain. I was supposed to die 8 years ago. But I’m still here. And having an awesome time.

🗓️ It's that time of year again! 🧊 In a couple of weeks, many of our Mitsubishi Electric Automation (Americas) employees will be taking the ice bucket challenge. Donations can be made here 👉 okt.to/JOFX7E#IceBucketChallenge#DefeatALS#NotTodayALS
Today marks four years since my #ALS diagnosis. I am weaker but my heart is stronger. I am slower but my chair can do six mph. I am less verbal but I can speak volumes with my eyes. I love my life. #NotTodayALS Not today.
Yesterday was the first day in a long time I felt somewhat good aftèr #ALS clinic.
Since July:
- I gained 6 pounds.
- My SVC is up 8%.
And we capped it off with a butchers hill from Di Pasquale's Marketplace 🤤

On this day six years ago, I heard those words that nobody should have to hear… You have ALS!
Well, I am still here thriving in spite of the disease that tries to keep me down.

And I'll tell you, I'd get a lot more love if I did the same as that person. But I won't. And I can't. Because I actually care. And I know what it's like to watch this disease crush my loved one, my life, my friends. And because ultimately we need more science. #NotTodayALS
Good reasons to be silent:
•to protect your peace
•you consciously choose the high road
Bad reasons to be silent:
•you are told you don’t matter
•you are bullied into it

@SteveGMedia is an ALS Superhero 🦸♂️. His strength and determination to #ENDALS is inspiring. I can’t think of a better ambassador for ALS awareness month!! #NotTodayALS
For ALS Awareness Month, I am sharing a few videos to give you a glimpse of life with the disease. This one is about how the amazing team @HotelDieuShaver gave me a voice after ALS robbed me of my speech. #EndALS
