OTTAWA, Nov. 19, 2014 /CNW/ - The board of ALS NB-NS is so very grateful to all who took the challenge, donated, made a video and challenged their comrades.  Our staff struggles every day with hard choices – how do we provide the best care with limited resources?   This gift has gone a long way in helping us provide much needed equipment allowing people to stay at home, to participate in family life, to remain relevant.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  John Forsyth and Michele Connors – Chair and Vice-Chair ALS NB-NS.
