How long do people with ALS live?

0

50% of ALS patients die within 18 months after diagnosis. Only 20% survive 5 years and 10% live longer than 10 years. Persons with ALS who go on a ventilator may live for many years, but once on a ventilator, 24-hour care MUST maintained by qualified nursing care.
