“The resources that my care partner was able to provide for me while my husband was sick were invaluable to us. Also having someone to talk to who was impartial to your situation has been so helpful it just gives me a safe place to talk about anything that I need or want to talk about. I can vent or I can just chat and my care partner is there to give me what I need on that given day, it has been a blessing.”

“I started talking to my care partner about a year ago. I was matched with a wonderful care partner to talk with.It took me a while to open up about myself for I personally felt. The more I talked with her, the more I realized that she became someone I can share my life with.She taught me a lot about myself and how to open up. I began sharing my most inner feelings about having ALS. She has taught me it’s okay to feel a certain way, and has given me advice on how to deal with my ALS.It also helps to know that I have someone else to talk with. I know my family has to deal with me having ALS as well. I’m thankful for my care partner for listening. She is a wonderful person and has a wonderful understanding of what I go through.”

“Having my care partner in my life while having ALS has been a blessing. She is always there for an encouraging word or prayer. She also has so much helpful information that she readily shares. Knowing that is only a phone call or text away is very comforting. I can’t say enough positive things about her kindness and understanding.”
