Attending the premier scientific ALS meeting of the year? Consider chatting with any of those in this photo who have had their life touched by genetic or inherited ALS and FTD. Here is to a great conference and much progress towards a cure!

Save the date! In the new year we are gathering anyone impacted by inherited or genetic ALS / MND and FTD from the United Kingdom, Ireland or other English Speakers in Europe. Join us for a community forum facilitated by UK ETL volunteers.

Help bring attention to this injustice for her and the other Sod1 patients in Norway by sharing her story and emailing their minister for health Jan Christian Vestre at postmottak@hod.dep.no asking for their help in ensuring her neurons can be saved before it is too late.

Today is Giving Tuesday. Think about what it would be like to have nowhere to turn for information, support and recognition in a Genetic ALS family. That was what each of ours had to endure before End the Legacy. Join our generous match to keep our movement going! https://givebutter.com/GcP5ep

We cheer the organizers of the just completed 2025 ALS/MND Alliance meeting where patient groups from around the globe gather for two days of learning and connecting. The genetic community was vibrantly involved throughout the two days.

Through our community of dedicated volunteers, End the Legacy has firmly staked the claim that those impacted by inherited ALS and FTD are a unique disease community with unique interests. Since organizing we have won acknowledgement for our community that is broadly recognized. But more is needed.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate! We are thankful for all our volunteers but today especially the leaders who gathered virtually in France this evening to continue planning how to organize the at risk community there!

We appreciate this note of common, intuitive, and proven sense shared by Dr Miller that debuted in the review article titled "Clinical trials of riluzole in patients with ALS" published in the Journal Neurology in 1995. See our movement continue at https://www.endthelegacy.org/2025appeal

This holiday season we are sharing our wish list for ALS leaders! Earlier this month advisors to a major ALS research and care group asked us to prepare what we would like to see from ALS leaders. We are sharing those main points here. Read them in detail at https://www.endthelegacy.org/latestnews !

The holiday season can remind us all of those we have lost, and when the same terrible disease has taken many it's presence in their absence is palpable. Our monthly peer support hour is this Wednesday and our community team meets twice a month. #endthelegacy #atrisk #als #ftd

No matter your risk of a disease every person deserves to be allowed to express themselves as they wish. No one has a script they must follow, and no one should be judging a loved one's thoughts and feelings as if they are the arbiters of what that person may express.

As announced our next North American Genetic ALS & FTD Community Summit will be held in Sacramento California September 24th-26th, 2026. We are so proud to be working with West Coast based ALS Network on this event. To be notified when registration for 2026 opens email info@endthelegacy.org

We are excited to announce the University of Minnesota has fulfilled all requests to be recognized as another center for At Risk Care! They also have the Prevent ALS study and if you either want to be seen for your risk as a research subject or a patient reach out! Visit endthelegacy.org/care

In inherited ALS and FTD one haunting spectre of the disease is anosognosia or the condition of symptoms being invisible to the patient. This complication can lead to the othering , so we have this gentle reminder patients must always be at the center of any disease that is impacting them.

We look forward to seeing continuing investigations as to what causes this difference in impact. See more at endthelegacy.org/c9orf72info

For people faced with the risk of inherited terminal conditions it's compelling to think of the promise of gene therapies. Sadly we cannot promise they are coming until they are here. To live with risk and in our current reality visit endthelegacy.org/care
