.1 of 1 percent have this type of ALS.

Grandfather was my mom’s father. Died of ALS and so did his two brothers.

His two sisters got Parkinson’s. A slow horrible death. The two sisters had boys and they all died of ALS. My mother died of Parkinson’s and it was not pretty!!

Now I have ALS and pray my kids will be ok!!

KIF5A is to blame! .1 of 1 percent have this type of ALS.
