Episode 11: Colleen

Published on: 4th May, 2023

Oh do we have a treat for your ears and your heart in this episode. Lenny and I had the absolute privilege of sitting down with Colleen and her husband Jeff. ALS has entered Colleen's world one too many times...and today she bravely shares with us her story as both a caregiver and as a person living with ALS. Colleen shares with us her love of music and the importance she knows in her bones - that telling her people, what they mean to her - is a privilege and an honor.

About the Podcast

Roots Radio
ALS
Welcome to Roots Radio...a podcast about sharing experiences with those battling ALS.

The overarching goal of Roots Radio is to strengthen and comfort the ALS Community through the sharing of experiences lived by its members. On our podcast, we will hear from those diagnosed with ALS, as well as from caregivers, doctors, researchers, and more.

Here at Roots Radio we believe that each of us are rooted in our core experiences and attributes from which we can gain strength to face adversity. We think about the roots of a tree as our grounding principals that symbolize those parts of our lives that are not touched or weakened by ALS.

Lenny is a patient advocate for those patients and caregivers living with ALS. He was diagnosed with ALS in July of 2019. Jessie is a social worker who has the privilege of working with the ALS Community.

Together we are Roots Radio.
