A p5er's (hypnotrader) wife recently found out that she has ALS (Lou Gherig's disease). It is a horrible disease with no cure. My grandmother has ALS and was in constant pain most of the time. She was so used to living with pain that she died not from ALS but from a ruptured appendix. She thought the pain from her appendix was just another intense pain for her to deal with and didn't get go to the hospital until it was too late.
They set up a Charity $5+$5 tourney on FTP to raise money for the search for his local chapter of the Walk to D'Feet ALS.
