I'm so glad they captured his voice before he lost it due to damage from ALS so he still could use it to communicate. What a great guy and his wife is great, too.
A number of years ago I watched a neighbor die of this disease. He was in the prime of his life and it was so tragic! His wife was so devastated that she never remarried! He was a true warrior and fought valiantly for 2 years . Rest in peace Melvin !
...and lucky to have the money. Most ALS patients don't have the resources to even buy a van to get around in much less all of the other high tech displayed in this video. Of course having someone there to love and support you is priceless.
This father is amazing. Unfortunately we took “living a normal life” for granted. This video serves two purposes: 1. Truly gives hope for people with ALS 2. Makes us, people living a normal life, really appreciate every single blessing that god gave us and enjoy every moment in our life.
It’s insane to think that at the same time both father and son are growing in opposite directions . While the son is learning to walk and talk... the father is learning to live without walking and talking.
My mom has just been diagnosed with ALS. I am devastated. Her speech was starting to get slurred and we were hoping it was a side effect of the chemo, but it has slowly gotten worse. Now she can barely talk. God bless his wife for sticking by him...
This woman is a role model. God bless her richly. She is strength and the best of character. ALS is devastating and I can't begin to think how I'd deal with being diagnosed with that. He's ultimately a legend not only for his football skills but more his grace with dealing with this horrible disease.
+ Aggie Chick The entity whom you call god (and who is supposedly omnipotent), would have been a much better being/entity if he/she/it had used that omnipotence to prevent such a horrible situation from developing for the woman and for her loved one on this Earth. THAT is real benevolence. There is no verifiable evidence whatsoever of any omnipotent being/god, or heaven, or hell, or rebirth/reincarnation.

Steve is my hero. For those of you who have not watched the documentary, please do so. your outlook on life will change for the better and you will begin to live like you mean it.
I was diagnosed with als in January 2019, so almost 1 year now. Steve Gleason makes me feel better about it Besides Jesus, he’s the only thing that gives me peace and ALMOST acceptance God bless all of us with this disease and our caretakers!
What I learned from my mother's struggle with ALS is that the only proper approach to them is without a sense of pity or too much superficial sympathy because it makes people feel worse about themselves then it's already the case. They want to be treated as equals and someone who still takes part in society. I remember her helping me with my homework when she already could no longer stand up, the warm palm of her hand and how she always looked great- nailpolish, perfume, beautiful clothes- to the very last day. And she loved coffee- "coffee" was, in fact, the very last word she said to me. Before we had time to prepare it, the ambulance came for her. I never saw her again. Hang in there, believe in yourself and you'll find the strength where you least expected it. Trust me.
I never really understood what exactly ALS is or what people went through until a few days ago, when UA-cam decided to put all ALS videos possible in my recommended feed. But I now have a whole new respect for people with ALS.
Same here. A random video popped up and I've been binge watching ALS videos since yesterday. I never understood it or cared to be honest but now I see how devastating this condition is. I definitely want to donate to research and help raise awareness. I have so much respect for those living with this and brave enough to tell their story and share it with the world....
AWESOME! GOD HELP NTHIS MOM AND PRECIOUS CHILD ESPECIALLY IF YOU DON'T HEAL THIS DAD BUT I ASK THAT YOU WOULD IN JEsUS' NAME,! Even if You don't heal this man, I pray his son won't grow up and be bitter even during his teen years if he won't have his dad there. I pray if You choose, or have already choosen to let this man die, that at the proper time, if its' the mom's desire, at least, You'll give her a new husband and his son a good step father in Jesus' name, amen.
This is absolutely beautiful!! Pulled my strings right out when father said i love you and his son said I...wuv youuuuuu dawwwww ♥️ and what an incredible mom/wife
I do feel there's a cure for every disease... it usually lies in the disease itself that has the Cure... But this world has been so genetically modified it's probably almost impossible without dumping billions of dollars into research which is not being done to even come close to understanding what we're actually dealing with
I've only just heard about this. This video made me cry such a terrible disease to get right when your about to become a dad robbing you of so many things life can be so cruel. Im glad he hasn't given up and still has a sense of humour and making things fun for his son the best he can. He's an inspiration ❤️
As I mourn a confused and misdirected football great, Aaron Hernandez, I'm introduced to Steve Gleason. Gleason reminds us that we can all choose to be heroes. Life is but a series of choices and it seems, those who choose to honour, through sharing, the gifts they've been born with, make not just themselves and those around them better, but the entire world. If it ever needed to be stressed, Gleason does it for us in the most selfless, loving way; we are what we choose to be regardless of what life throws at us.
I send you my best man. You are stronger than me. Within a week after diagnosis, I would be exiting this realm... Hope you are still strong. I'll pray for ya.
@@delltawnnorthri7459 thanks for sending your prayers for me. It's not about being strong, you don't have a choice. If I could trust me,I wouldn't have this debilitating disease.

To the angry general. You shouldn't be using this site to vent against religon. You're entitled to your opinion but those who suffer from this or other serious conditions need positive thoughts and comments. Take your anger elsewhere. It doesn't belong here.
An incredible story, an incredible family. My half brother passed away from ALS at a young age. While I did not know him, my heart hurt for what he went through. God bless the Gleason family.
He contributes so much to ALS it is remarkable my husband had ALS for two and a half years and he passed and team Gleason's helped him with so much stuff I can't thank that organization enough
Really puts things into perspective, big time.....we all get soo caught up in our everyday lives...work, paying bills, fighting over stupid things. Never take life for granted
Thank you Mr. Gleason for giving me the opportunity of experiencing my NO Saints winning our very first Super Bowl. I thought I WAS NEVER GONNA EXPERIENCE THIS MOMENT, I was an ain't since 8 AND now I'm 30 and I got to experience the championship you the Saints gave us the fans. Thanks again Mr. Gleason.
My partner was recently diagnosed with Bulbar ALS and this is just a heart wrenching disease. It's horrific. Thank you for sharing the raw reality of this horrific disease. Blessings to your family.
Steve, you brought happiness to my city after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. Thank you for that, sir. Hope we are able to find a cure for you and your kids!!! Much love from The Who Dat Nation!!!
this is tragic, he seemed so alive and physically there 100% before. how devastating this is for him. god bless him, i pray there is a cure one day. i can’t imagine ever going through this.
This is really sad at the same time soo inspirational... human can still motivate others when they are down ... definitely he is hero for his kid ... Wife is a woman of substance... awesome people !!
This 2 are out of this world. I felt in love and admiration for Michel just how fucking real she is...her devotion and love towards her family. And Steve Gleason... well he is the bomb.
God bless you Steve and be with you and strengthen you and give you courage and comfort...I'm thankful your wife takes good care of you and you have a beautiful son.. much love and respect to your whole family :-)

I watched this last night. Cried my fucking eyes out. This documentary is touching, devastating, beautiful and as real as it gets. I feel so horrible for Steve, Michel and Rivers. I wish I could take this disease away.
My brother was diagnosed in October of 2018. After 6 months of terrible pain, he his unable to move, talk except one eye to blink! He worked out 6 days a week before was a bike cyclist would take trips by himself and in two days ride about a 125 miles. They say because his heart is of a 30 year old . He’s on a breathing machine and feeding tube. He is one of 8 children number 5 first son born. He played high school football and scholarship to Alabama. I believe from what I have found out is it’s very possible concussions could of played a role in this.Another football player from his high school team died too! He’s was only 65 when diagnosed 😕. He lives out of town but my brothers and sister drive to see him regularly. So glad my mother and father are not with us to see what he is going through. Please pray for him and his family! They need it❣️. Thank you for listening it’s so hard to talk about.❣️ my prayers go out to everyone that has a love one going through this.
God bless you, Steve Gleason, you beautiful soul, I became a better person on the day that I learned about you. I love you and that love is alive and will go a long way.
I was my husband's caregiver he was more worried about me cuz I did everything for him than him himself I took care of him for two and a half years and I miss it no cure disease it's so sad
I commend her for staying strong. But I dont think staying with him makes her great. She is his wife through sickness and health. Sure I get it that she could have left. But he was a star. How would this have made her look if she had abandoned him in his greatest time of need? She is well taken care of and has been made a star through this. He i s a true hero.
I'm so glad they captured his voice before he lost it due to damage from ALS so he still could use it to communicate. What a great guy and his wife is great, too.

Hi
AN AMAZING STORY. SO NICE OF HIS WIFE STANDING BY HIS SIDE.
I commend her for staying strong. But I dont think staying with him makes her great. She is his wife through sickness and health. Sure I get it that she could have left. But he was a star. How would this have made her look if she had abandoned him in his greatest time of need? She is well taken care of and has been made a star through this. He i s a true hero.
3:50 ... Wow that broke my heart
I pray for you and your son, wife Gleason. I hope we find the cure.
speechless ❤️
Made me cry a little
So sad yet so inspiring.
She real one ❤️ God bless 👪
His wife is so strong for doing all of this !!
