T.H. is a 55-year-old man with an 8-month history of progressive muscle weakness. Initially, he tripped over

things and seemed to drop everything. He lost interest in activities because he was always exhausted. He sought medical assistance when his speech became slurred and he started to drool. During the initial evaluation, the physician noted frequent, severe muscle cramps, muscle twitching, and inappropriate, uncontrollable periods of laughter. After undergoing a series of tests, T.H. was diagnosed with amyo trophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). He is upset and bewildered about a disease that he has "never even heard of." You are a home health nurse who is seeing T.H. for the first time. How would you explain ALS to T.H.?
