    Unfortunately Tim lost his battle with ALS over a year ago. Even after his death, Tim is still creating awareness. Often Awesome the series will be airing on TV in the UK this spring. He was the bravest and most selfless person we have ever met. We miss him a lot but are happy that his message is still out there helping others.

    My 44 year old sister Mary Ann passed away Tuesday morning after a 5 year battle with ALS... I totally feel their heartache. This is such a horrible disease... I miss you so much sister, this isn't Goodbye... It's see you later. Rest in the loving arms of Jesus 04/09/2019 🌷🌷

    This is the worst disease I can think of to get. There needs to be more funding for this b/c anyone could get this.

    Actions speak louder than words, even curse words. Tim showed even his most vulnerable moments to the world in hopes of raising awareness for others even though he knew that awareness would not create a cure in time to save him. That is bravery. Shallow would be to dwell on a few curse words when the measure of ones life should be the service he or she has done for others. And Tim certainly served others more than most people in this world. Arrogance is assuming your way is the only way.

    Tim, you ARE the miracle. And both of you have done a tremendous amount of good and helped so many of us. We are all better people by knowing you - even if it's only through the internet. I am so thankful to have listened to your story.

    "gay marry" means, "not official/recognized by the state." They did this to qualify for assistance that would be harder to get as a married couple, and to keep Kaylan from having to absorb any debts accrued. I believe it's something along those lines, at least.. not entirely certain of the semantics of it.

    I watched my Grandpa, this strong Marine Vet, slowly become a prisoner in his own body! He was such a proud person, and it was sad to see the fight and surrender of what this disease! As religous as he was, he once made the statement that if he knew bad this was really going th be, he would of chose to seriously think of ending his life! Would he of? No, his love for God, I know he wouldnt of, but just to know he thought that, still breaks my heart! He was 62, and missed so much, and had years yet to go! The one thing when its my turn to leave this life, the one thing that I want is to see him first standing at the Gaits welcoming me, and finally have him back! He was an amazingly great and loving man! My heart goes to all who has to suffer this cruel disease!

    So many years passed since Tim died and now I am a caregiver of wonderful guy who's slowly deteriorating from this horrible disease, and still - no cure, no treatment, nothing! When the hell are we going to see a cure or at least treatment for this monster of a disease? Come on, enough is enough, how many more people will have to die this way???

    Though some people are touched with this and other terminal diseases....it's best to have God on your side because when you pass your instantly with the Lord and no more sickness....Jesus saves...pray and accept him so you'll know where you will end up eternally. God loves us.

    Cluster headaches. bad Parasites and ALS... top three fucked up things in my book, that i must try to avoid. Tim and Beautiful wife, Nothing but Positive Feels for you both, and All ALS victims. I WILL believe the cure will come someday. And or Help if the Opportunity presents itself. . . You will Walk again, you will have your body again. And I will buy you Destiny on xbox one just so We can Play together... Peace and may the Force be with you.

    My mother died from ALS. While she didn't use curse words to this degree, she still fought the courageous battle this brave man did. You, rinceresource, are disgusting to me for even saying such a thing. Do you know of anyone with ALS? Have you lost a parent, child, or spouse to it? Until then, you have no right to speak about someone's personal relationship with God. Curse words are just words created by man and society. GEt over yourself!
