When Brian Wallach was diagnosed with ALS, he was given six months to live. @bsw5020 and @sabrevaya’s film, For Love & Life: No Ordinary Campaign, chronicles their incredible journey, and proves that all of us are far more powerful than we know. I hope you’ll watch it on Prime Video and get involved with their work to find a cure for ALS at IAmALS.org.

Why does everything have to turn into some crazy conspiracy theory?
First it was “How did the Maui, Hawaii fire spread so rapidly in 80 mile per hour winds and super dry conditions?”
Then it was, “Did lasers from the sky start these fires?”
And now it is, “Why are there so many children missing after a fire destroyed a significant part of a very rural island? Were they actually abducted?”
I’m just sick of people directing attention to all of the wrong things in order to get clicks on their conspiracy theory-laden social media posts during a significant tragedy.

The shooter in Nashville left behind a manifesto. She had a different school in mind but settled on one she was familiar with. She was well armed with two assault rifles and a handgun. This was a premeditated act of violence against America’s children and teachers. I’m a former combat vet. These weapons do not belong in the hands of civilians. For any reason. This is not a 2nd Amendment issue. It’s a human rights issue.

I have posted this before but ..
26 years ago, a gunman entered
Dunblane Primary School in Scotland,
killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK
govt responded by enacting tight gun
control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O
school shootings in the UK.

I don't understand why there's such a so-far intractable inability to get these treatments to the people who need them. Whatever it takes, let's go already. Seems like a perfect opportunity for #bipartisanship, elected officials.
39-year-old Jessica died of 100% FATAL #ALS leaving behind her husband & 2 children.
EXTREME suffering/deaths continue despite years of #Nurown safety data & UNPRECEDENTED results
Congress, help END the CRUEL @FDACBER ALS regulatory RIGIDITY. DEMAND a #Nurown AdComm hearing so #RealWorldEvidence of efficacy can be shared publicly. @DrCaliff_FDA

ALS IS NOT RARE. You're MISTAKEN if you believe that HORRIFIC ALS can't happen to you or your loved ones.

“Change starts when ordinary people decide they’re going to do extraordinary things.”
Listen to @BarackObama's moving reflections at a very special Obama Foundation 44 alumni event in Austin, TX. We’re so inspired by @bsw5020 and @sabrevaya, and their work through @IAmALSOrg.

Today, we are another step closer to ending ALS.
@POTUS's budget request includes $2.5 million to implement #ACTforALS to foster the development of treatments for ALS and other rare neurodegenerative diseases.

BREAKING: Jon Stewart just completely destroyed Republican State Senator Nathan Dahm of Oklahoma on gun reform in America. Each and every point that Dahm tried to address was completely debunked by Stewart. Stewart made Dahm look as foolish as he and his republican colleagues really are.
My favorite quote was: “In every other place your life you want to bring order, but guns are the outlier for you.”
Let all your republican friends see this video! teapawt.net/TheProblem/statu…

I believe that every ALS patient, every person with ALS in their family even if they don't have symptoms, and every family member of someone who is a gene carrier should have access to comprehensive genetic testing and pre and post-test genetic counseling. Period.

I am living with a terminal disease. I am also a patient advocate.
I am a damn good advocate, but I need your help. The more followers I have, the more I can get government and pharma to pay attention.
So my ask is: Will you follow me so we can change the world?

I AM ALS is appalled by Cigna’s decision to not cover an FDA approved treatment for ALS that extends functionality & life. @Cigna needs to immediately reverse this decision. People living with ALS deserve better and don't have time to wait while battling an always fatal disease.

Imagine being so Christian that you opt to vote for a man who reportedly committed violence against his family, fathered multiple children with different women, paid for an abortion and was absent as a father - rather than vote for a reverend who studied and taught Christianity!
