Now, my son is two and he is the reason why I exsist but I have beccome very sick, becasue I was not left the luxury of my medical history by my birthmother or my birth grandmother (the only two people in my birth faimly of whom know I exist) did not leave me any medical history, no doctors can find out what is wrong with me. They know it is serious.. Please!! If only for your granson....I need to know all my medical history, I want to be there for son as long as possible but I need your help...Margaret Anee Siefferlen 9374357149 9/11/78 Saint Elizabeth Hospital in Dayton OH

You ask (by another name) about ALS. Is that what you think you have? How about asking your doctor your questions?
