My name is Patrick. Sometime during the fall of 2004, I noticed an involuntary shaking in my legs. For a long time the exact cause eluded definition.
On May 24th, 2005, however, I was officially diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (also known as ALS or Lou Gherig's disease), a terminal disease that results in the progressive degeneration of the nerves and muscles responsible for voluntary movement. It is a fatal and incurable disease. I was 30 years old.

Wow TF! My heart goes out to you. This endeavor is smart and necessary. You are tremendously courageous to make that video and prepare this foundation. The video is very hard to watch.

My uncle died of Lou Gherig's two weeks ago. He had it for 7 long years. I FUCKING hate that disease. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Be strong.
