Episode 68 John Russo on Talking about ALS

Often when we discuss ALS and other serious diseases, we use words like hero and brave to describe those who are most affected. However, is that how people with ALS want to be described? In this podcast, John Russo talks about his life with ALS and about the words he likes and dislikes, how people can offer to help in person, and why the best way for people to be a friend to someone with a disease is to not wait until they need a friend, but to start now, before ALS or something like it enters the pictures.
