Sam Cunningham: Trusting Your Body, Finding Your Voice, Facing ALS at 35

Send us Fan MailFor six years, Sam Cunningham felt the subtle but persistent signs that something in his body wasn’t right—leg heaviness, twitching, and strength loss that didn’t add up.  As an athlete, he knew his body, but getting answers proved to be a long and frustrating journey.  In this episode, Sam shares what it’s like to finally receive an ALS diagnosis at 35, the emotional weight of being both devastated and validated, and how persistence, detailed documentation, and the right clinician ultimately connected the dots.  We also explore exercise and ALS, adapting to new limits, and how faith, mindset, and unexpected support are helping him navigate this next chapter.  Thank you for listening in.  Hugs, LorriFollow and see what's coming next: Instagram,  Facebook,  Twitter, TikTok,  LinkedIn.
