This person wanted more attention than I did, I didnt put on a bikini...lol I did this Ice Bucket Challenge, and Im not ashamed!!! I didnt know what ALS is until I asked questions. Tell me Cancer and I can name many of my friends or family member who had to deal with it, leukemia, learned about it, Heart Disease, seen it in my family, diabetes seen it in my family, ALS I never heard of it. DONT HATE = EDUCATE Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrigs Disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons reach from the brain to the spinal cord and from the spinal cord to the muscles throughout the body. The progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to their death. When the motor neurons die, the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed.
