[edit] Please

Please go to www.ftd-picks.org for further information about frontotemporal dementia from the Association for FrontoTemporal Dementia (AFTD) and links to face-to-face and online support groups for FTD caregivers.

[edit] MND is not only ALS

"FTD can occur in patients with motor neurone disease (also known in the US as Lou Gehrig's disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) in a small number of cases."

As I understand, MND includes ALS, but also other diseases. So the sentence should read "In a small number of cases, FTD can occur in patients with motor neuron diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (also known as Lou Gehrig's disease in the US)." -Pgan002 18:53, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
