For caregivers of a person with ALS, taking time for self-care is more easily said than done. But putting off self-care can lead to burnout, making it more difficult to care for a loved one with ALS. Do you have days or even weeks where you feel you are simply "Running on Empty"?
Navigating ALS is a special series for newly diagnosed families. In our next session, we'll review the multidisciplinary care approach and its benefits for people living with ALS.
Join us for a special cooking presentation from our friends at To Taste as they give us a delicious recipe for the Spring. Cooking Demo and Meal Prep for the ALS Journey.
