Today we gathered on the mall to share our stories, hold each other in love and remember those who came before us and those who are still fighting. It was a beautiful day that helps you remember what we are fighting for. Good night moon.

It happened. Today, @US_FDA granted accelerated approval for Tofersen. This is a huge day for the entire ALS community and, in particular, the families who have SOD1-ALS. Today, they finally have some hope. fda.gov/drugs/news-events-hu…

I am so grateful to be a part of this amazing article about how ALS patients are using technology to help them communicate long after they lose their voice. I hope you will read it as the article is simply mind-blowing. washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

In case it was not clear from my tweet this morning, the IRB-approved study that @synapticure just announced today is a really big f'ing deal. Here's to a more proactive approach to presymptomatic individuals who carry a gene variant known to cause ALS. synapticure.com/blog/presymp…

Six years ago I was told to prepare to die. This is the improbable, inspiring, love-filled, hope-filled, true story about the extraordinary campaign that happened next. This is where you come in: please share this trailer with everyone so that we can bring hope to everyone.

"Few diseases are as cruelly debilitating as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)." Thank you, @WSJ, for speaking out about the need to provide real hope to ALS patients. We, too, hope that @US_FDA will do the right thing and approve AMX0035 ASAP. wsj.com/articles/the-fda-and…

We share our ALS journey—the hope, pain, laughter, love and tears—to make my generation of patients the last. So tonight I have an ask: Please share this video to let everyone know that ALS is fatal today but for the first time ever we can change that. #ThankYou

Thank you @BettyMcCollum04, @KenCalvert, @RepMikeQuigley and @JeffFortenberry for your incredible support for the fight to end ALS. Our veterans are 2x as likely as non-veterans to have ALS and the $40M in DOD research funding is critical to finding treatments now. #ALSchampions

Great talk by Dr. Laura Allen on noticing hospitality in physical and digital spaces, from park benches to virtual meeting spaces. Cites Selfe and Selfe’s “The Politics of the Interface” #DMAC2021
