SUMMARY:Les Turner ALS Foundation: The ALS Turbocharged Living Scale
DESCRIPTION:A New Way to Measure What Matters \nJoin us for an inspiring one-hour conversation with Peggy Plews-Ogan\, MD\, of the Hummingbird Fund\, as she shares the story behind the ALS Turbocharged Living Scale\, a powerful framework developed by her late husband. The scale offers a meaningful way for people living with ALS to measure and celebrate quality of life beyond physical function. Whether you are navigating ALS yourself or supporting someone who is\, this webinar will offer a fresh perspective and practical insight. \nAbout the Speaker: Peggy Plews-Ogan\, MD\, is Bernard B. and Annie E. Brodie Professor of Medicine at the University of Virginia School of Medicine and the Co-Director of the Wisdom and Wellbeing program—a health-system initiative to address stress\, burnout and professionalism at UVA\, which includes a coaching program for faculty and staff. Peggy’s husband Jim—who was diagnosed with ALS in 2021 and passed away in July 2024 from the disease—was a pediatrician and Emeritus Associate Professor at UVA. After Jim’s diagnosis\, Peggy and Jim devoted their lives to advocacy work toward ALS. She and Jim have two grown children\, Erin (assistant professor of medicine at the University of Wisconsin Madison) and William (a graduate of Columbia Law School who now practices in NYC)\, along with son-in-law Hal and daughter-in-law Monika\, who all advocate to eliminate ALS! \nLink to Register: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ABIvilnBQ1mfRC4fwZBIkQ
