I have started looking at some books online and have requested some to be delivered to the Mesa State library to use for my paper. So far I do not have all the information that I need to post, due to the fact that the books have not been delivered, but I do have some. Two of the books that I have rented from online is Lou Gehrigs Disease written by Melissa Abramovitz, and Is it in Your Genes? The Influence of Genes on Common Disorders and Disease that Effect You and Y written by Philip Reilly.
I was going to go to the library and do some more research with books that I can actually use right away....but the library is closed on Monday because of Presidents Day....I forgot about that. So I will have to go on Tuesday instead.

ENG112-Week 2
This is only the beginning of week two but I already have something to say. I knew there was a lot of things that I didn't know, but some of it is hitting close to home. I believe this is something that I can use to my advantage though! I will post more through out the rest of week.
So far with my exploration I have found out that there are actually three different types of lou gehrigs disease (ALS), which was a suprise to me. I thought ALS was ALS.
My research question is: Cases of Lou Gehrigs Disease (ALS) is increasingly showing up even though few know about the disease, what is new research showing on signs/symptoms of the disease? Is there any treatments to stop/slow down the disease? What percentage of people are developing the disease?

ENG112-Week 1
As of right now I am just trying to decide what to write on. I origanally thought I wanted to write on Pakistan and Israel conflict, but it turns out that after a little more research it was not what I thougyht it would be. My second idea was the crusades.
However, the crusades was not my last idea. My last and final idea is lou gehrigs disease. The resaon for me wanting to do this is two resaons. The first is that I heard from another student that they were told they were aloud to use their anatomy and physiology research paper for their english as well. The second, my Grandma passed away from the disease two years ago. I want to know more about the disease that had so mucvh impact on me.
