"With the progression it will impact muscles to swallow, so it could be severe enough to need a feeding tube," said Dr. Yessar Hussain, M. D., with Austin Neuromuscular Center."Terry has a strong will, coping well battling for a while, he's a star and trying not to let the disease limit him," said Dr. Hussain.
Dr. Hussain says it's been proven that a patient's attitude will improve their diagnosis, and he likes terry. If Terry's green beret training is his weapon in this battle, his wife Sharon is his motivation to fight.
