Absolutely.ALS is brutal enough for anyone but someone nearly 86 and with pre existing health conditions it is even worse.Also at her age and with other health problems there is far less chance Doctors would want to put her on invasive ventilation. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,282 Posted November 15, 2022 I wonder if she will have a similar lifespan to Ronnie Corbett who died 12 months after his ALS diagnosis at the same age. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
