Shiv,

No apology necessary. Nothing you said was in any way unkind or inappropriate.

Many of us who have been personally affected by ALS are happy that it's been 
getting so much attention merely due to the ice bucket challenge.  It is, as 
you say, only one among any number of relatively unknown diseases, each one 
more cruel than the next. 

It really does seem to me that ALS will be curable soon. Scientists are making 
really exciting progress on many fronts.

Of course, that may be a false dawn, who knows.
