Sen. DiDomenico reflects on loss and resilience with ALS advocates

Special to The Advocate

Last week, at the State House’s ALS Advocacy Day, Senator Sal DiDomenico spoke about his mom’s courageous battle with ALS and her enduring love for her family. In last year’s budget, DiDomenico secured $250,000 for the ALS Association of Massachusetts, which supports individuals living with ALS and their families who care for them. The Senator will continue advocating for increased investments in this extraordinary organization this year.

“It was inspiring to be surrounded by so many people who have been impacted in some way by this horrible disease and are using their experience to advocate for more funding and research into ALS,” said Senator DiDomenico. “We hope there will one day be a cure, and until then I will continue to prioritize ALS legislation and investments so we can support research and organizations that care for families dealing with this disease.”
