Does medical cannabis work for ALS? Haven’t heard much about that like MS but you never know…

I too have been diagnosed with ALS and my mother died from it in 1988. I have AFO’s on both feet. I am retired from teaching but continue to substitute and teach adults in hopes that the will get their GED. Good luck to you. Lets hope and pray for a cure.

I also have ALS but not the familial variety and I am an old fart with a life well lived and really nor reason to hang around for long. I have been following this series on Facebook but tonight is the first time I sat down and watched all the videos. You are doing us all such a great service, and I am so grateful for your willingness to share your life with this disease from the very start. I wish you well, both Tim and Kaylan, because not one of has the disease alone. It is a family or partnership disease. Your support system speaks volumes of your worth, a worth that far exceeds your age.

not usually as the best benefits are usually via smoking for most illnesses-this is more likened to cerebral palsy&needs intense hands on work all day. Narcs have IM&IV&12-24hr forms. Swallowing gets difficult and patches are only now in development for canabis. It’s only legal in a handful of states as is.

Thanks Blake&co for doing this. Are you guys partners? It could help once this gets the views it really should. I don’t know all the details of partnering but you guys should definitely consider it. DoC could profit from the full film on here should you ever become a partner. My prayers are with Tim and his awesome team. The Project for Awesome-ALL about awareness&raising $-NEEDS to have this story. Ask Hank Green of the Vlogbrothers for more info.

RIP. What a brave man to go through all of that. I hope we can do something about this disease soon.

Thank you for sharing this series! I’m so happy to see people trying to raise awareness for ALS and this man is inspiring, not only to people as a majority, but to other young (and old) people like me who do have this disease. I’m sorry he is not here in body any more, but I hope his family take pride and comfort he is here in spirit and a great help to others, even though he’s gone. Bless the people making this series and the family willing to share their story! I hope we can find a cure soon!!

Hi I just found this series, and watched episode 1. My sister-in-law was just diagnosed with ALS, and it is so sad. My brother is devastated he is going to see his wife go through this, and I hope I can be there for him like I need to. I want to. I will! Thanks for sharing this personal journey and bringing awareness. God Bless.
