This is regarding “`He hates what he’s become’; Trevor Lehmann refused to stop living after he learned he had Lou Gehrig’s disease. But the voracious illness has taken a brutal toll” (Page 1, Jan. 5). My father died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a fatal neurological disorder known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, in 1971. I find it difficult to believe that there has been little progress in the treatment of this disease, or multiple sclerosis, or muscular dystrophy in more than 30 years. The medical community should be ashamed of itself.
My heart and my prayers go out to the Lehmann family
