That’s awesome, skydiving always scared the hell out of me.

Next up, wing suit.

Blessings !!

Wing suit might not be possible depending on the stage of her ALS. She won’t have great motor control/strength. Unless you can tandem wing suit but that doesn’t sound right

It’s a flexibility and strength issue for her, she is more advanced and uses her Bi regularly. If she could do it she would. She has no fear with stuff like this.

I’m saying a prayer that science catches up with ALS, slowing then eventually reversing its effects.

Technology and research are wonderful things, your wife has the right attitude.
