We're a husband and wife living with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). This is a story of sorrows and joy, grief and magic. A first person account of how to navigate the unthinkable, a space to uncover the truth of what love and courage really look like. We hope that through Jules and his story you feel inspired to live life to the fullest. Thank you listening, subscribing and sharing. #thecoupleshift
