27-year-old Corey Reich and his mother, Wendy, show what it is like to live with ALS, a.k.a. Lou Gehrig's disease. . Learn more about the Young Faces of ALS here: yfals.als.net/
After watching this video I did some research and Corey is still alive and doing pretty well considering his ALS. He has been living with als for 15 years! His momma must be so happy! This is such good news. He is obviously very blessed, he is still able to use his voice, no breathing tube and even more handsome then in this video. His speech is not as clear as in this video but he is still talking. I found the video on Facebook. Bless you Corey! 🙏
I wouldn't pray for either. I have primary progressive MS. I was diagnosed 10 years ago. At 32 years old. I am now a 42-year-old woman with advanced MS. I am completely paralyzed on my right side. No use of my legs, no use of my right arm, and my left arm is extremely weak. I cannot bathe myself, dress myself, I am chair bound, bed bound, and eating and drinking are becoming difficult because of the weakness in my love to hand. I'm completely dependent on caregivers and family. The way I see it, ALS is a fast death sentence, but MS, if you have a bad prognosis of, it's just a very long drawn out form of ALS. I will have to live the rest of my life like this, realizing that I will be in a nursing home shortly and people will be taking care of me for the rest of my life, while my brain functions fine, and watching myself deteriorate. I have very little bladder and bowel control, my speech gets slurred because my tongue gets weak. I am past the point of treatment. I progressed extremely fast. I wouldn't wish either of these diseases on anyone. To
Brutal disease! Lovely guy, who is at least fortunate to have loving parents. I hope Corey is still here and is enjoying life as much as he can. Best of Luck Corey
I believe that no condition is permanent , I was suffering from ALS for Many Year I couldn't walk , I used alot of medication but non of it could cure me u til I got a review of Dr Okosodo Sunday Herbal Home has the cure so I contacted him and ordered his herbal medicine after I finished the medication for 14days I felt a great relief and I started to Walk again thank you so much Doc ruclips.net/channel/UC7Qx8cMXo_vf2rwcTrt_CFw
My father just got diagnosed with ALS. We are at such a loss. 😢 I’m so sad for him, my mom, my brother and sisters. And what happens next. It’s going to be a long road ahead.
My dad has ALS too, and I keep thinking this isn’t real, but it is and it’s truly the most painful realization I have everyday. I’m sorry for your father and I hope he is okay and living the best he can

My sweet neighbor died 8 days ago with ALS. She retired 9/2020 and a short 11 months later she is gone. I went to see her 3 days before she stopped breathing. She could barely swallow and could move her eyes but nothing else. There is no rhyme nor reason to this terrible disease..

Im one of the chosen I suppose. Each day i wake with the knowledge that my risk for MND or what you call ALS is extremely high. So the fight you fight is for me. In my family i have lost 5 people to ALS in the past 20 years and i have to say that is a lot because i have a extremely small family. In genetic testing which i chose to go through they found i have a Malformation of the SOD1 gene which like my other family members makes me predisposed to the disease. So this sits quietly on a shelf and when you get that twitch, cramp or just feel a little weak or tired you wonder. is it? Please AXE ALS for you and me. thank you. Dont let go of your fight. You are in my prayers.

What a beautifully filmed video and very touching. Corey is surrounded by love and that's what he needs most of all except a cure. I hope one comes soon for all those suffering from such deadly and debilitating diseases as this one. What a fine young man he is and also very handsome.
Thank you! I lost my SIL in 2016 at 50 of LGs. She left my brother and their two kids 17 and 13. She only had 14 months. MS isn't that great either my aunt has that. We are now worried the kids may develop it LG is more rare but is hereditary. Her grandmother and cousin also died of it. Cherish every moment.
I am feeling everything that they are talking about and I to have ALS. I take it one day at a time. I am going to be 58 in July. I got my diagnosis in October of 2020. I have struggling with this for over a year now. I wish that this young man could have some years before this happened to him. He is so young. That's the part that hurts me for him. I pray that he and his family can stay strong and trust in God and don't give up. Feel what you need to feel that way you can move forward and get ready for another day. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. Praying for you all.
You hang in there Wanda. I was diagnosed in 2017, at 56 years old and still sitting here typing this to you. Still walking. Still talking. There is hope. The doctor said I am one of those that the disease is progressing extra slow in. I hope that you are one of people. too.
I went through this also. After all the things I could have been diagnosed with, MS ended up being the best. However, at 41, it’s tough. I don’t know how I’m gonna do it.
My husband has adult myotonic dystrophy, we were using a few limited services frm MDA, then received a letter frm them telling us they were cutting more services....so where is all that money going????
I think the answer is Freshwater Australia Lemon Myrtle Oil Plus Manuka Honey soap. I think the idea behind are teeth and whether these people don't have a tooth decay?
Could anyone inform me on how it feels in the early stages of als? I mean as far as what does your body feel? Do you feel pains? Is it dull or did it feel like very slight "soreness"? I'm curious on how the body tells you. Do multiple symptoms start at once?
Unfortunately, MS isn't much better. Yes, you have longer life span, but I feel that MS is just a long drawn out life of ALS. I have primary progressive MS. I was diagnosed at 32 years old, walking, functioning fine. 10 years later, I am chair bound, bed bound, completely paralyzed in my right arm, both of my legs, and have limited use of my left. I have to be very careful eating and drinking or I choke, I have severe spasticity, loss of bladder control, and just my overall happiness of life is very low. I am just surviving. So, ALS is a death sentence in terms of time, but I Dread the years I'm going to have the live like this. I'm 42 years old and I'm completely dependent on caregivers and family. I am unable to bathe myself, dress myself, and feeding myself is becoming very difficult just because my left arm gets so weak. I hate these diseases. I hate that they haven't come up with a cure. All they keep coming up with are treatments that are making the pharmaceutical companies billions of dollars. Not a way to live.
@@dovlab3089 Yes, unfortunately, I was too far progressed beyond the disability scale to qualify. I also know a girl that had it done at northwestern in Chicago and she did not improve. It's a risk to take because you never know if your body is going to be able to withstand the procedure. It's pretty rough. Some people have seen great outcomes, and some people, it seems the time and money was wasted.
@@shadow03clb yes...I read that... I also read that there are 2 types of stem cells therapy, that one type is not as good as the other ...the best is when they take your cells from your bone marrow, grow them up and inject them back....have you heard about Selma Blair? She had hers done in Mexico, it's important to know which clinic is best...may God help you !!!!
@@dovlab3089 Yes, I know all about it. The doctor in Mexico is actually part of Mayo clinic. It's done in Puebla Mexico. At the time that I was looking at it it was $55,000. Yes, Selma Blair had the procedure done at northwestern. Is done with chemotherapy and then extracting your stem cells wiping your immune system putting the stem cells back in. Trust me I know numerous amount of facts about this disease. I can write a book. I'm had MS for over 10 years. It's called HSCT.
Truly feel so bad for this kid. The part when his mom asks them if you would like juice or salt on his eggs and he says no instead of saying No thank you. And then apart when he's on the tennis court he looks away from the guy puts his fist out and lets the guy fist bump, it just bothers me I get the fact that you're going through something awful but have some respect.
Maybe he said no instead of no thank you because talking is already hard enough with ALS as you struggle to breathe and your facial muscles stop working. Try having some empathy. It’s not the end of the world if he says no.

Great to hear 😊
Wonderful news. His must have the slow growing kind.
That's brilliant newsxxx😂❤❤
Corey is absolutely georgeous ❤
Omigosh he's so handsome. Still so handsome and sweet. Eternally loveable. I would be the same as this woman who is devoting her life to her son.
Sobbing.....what a handsome guy ! Such a profound impact on Corey and all who love him xxx
My husband died from ALS in 2016. I prayed for MS.
I am so sorry for your loss.

ALS is the hardest diagnosis due to shortened life span and no treatments. You have the most caring parents ( mom) who loves you so much!!!
Brutal disease! Lovely guy, who is at least fortunate to have loving parents. I hope Corey is still here and is enjoying life as much as he can. Best of Luck Corey
I just saw a tweet from him. God bless him🙌🏽
Cruel disease and I really hate it.
May God continue to bless this family ❤
God bless you Corey and your family too💔
God bless you & your family corey. You have great will power. Thank you for this little video. You are inspiration to everyone suffering with ALS.
So young so sad.. I'm 53 and just diagnosed with ALS.. relentless disease.
Best of luck to you

I could never imagine what you’re going through.

The worst disease, why some people has this?😢
my husband just died of ALS he had it two and a half years the day before his birthday he would have been 74
That's a lot of money wow. Are there more of you!
I went through this also. After all the things I could have been diagnosed with, MS ended up being the best. However, at 41, it’s tough. I don’t know how I’m gonna do it.
Just hope for the best.
Does anyone else in his family have it since get diagnosed so young
