Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is one of the cruelest diseases.

[@aynako1538]

"You do whatever you have to for the one you love." I was already crying from the first few moments of this video, and then his wife said this...and then I started sobbing. This situation is so difficult, but the unconditional love she had for her husband and her amazing attitude are so inspiring.

[@karlasoraya2175]

This one got to me. It breaks my heart to see him crying. What a horrible disease, he's so young....💔

Me too. And when he said thank you and nate just shook his head like he was sorry for him. He's still in there and he was probably so sad and tired of dealing with that disease. Rip

Have come to this site for comfort, inspiration, and hope during this time of so much self-centeredness and distrust by too many leaders and citizens alike. These people are the salt of the earth. I did a search and found out Wyatt had passed. May Mindy and their children never be without love and support in their lives.

[@brendataylor3308]

God Bless the Family and the Secret Santa for helping those in need . I would like to also say Hats off to the Wife for standing by her man , as ADS is not easy to deal with for either of them . I pray he gets the lift for his vehicle so he can get out of the house and do what he needs to do . I could watch stories like this all day , and my heart goes out to all these families. If only these famous Actors that make millions could do something like this. May God Bless and watch over this amazing family , and others in need of his love. :):):):):)

ALS~ 3 letters no one ever wants to hear. It totally eats you alive. God I can’t even imagine being a fully healthy adult and then reduced to not being able to even eat or pick up a cup or something…. It’s just devastating and it’s really something I wish we could eradicate. Ughhhhh. For the wife to stand by him through this is nothing short of sainthood. Can’t imagine how hard her daily life is having to take care of herself , him and her kids. Goodness gracious.

My niece died at the age of 30 from MND in 2016, its almost the same w/ ALS disease, my friend has it now😥I think the difference of MND is that my niece can move and talk but she cannot walk bcoz its killing all her nerves while ALS, you are alive but u cannot move and talk anymore and its about the muscles, hope im right. My friend is on thats stage now, still in d hospital and spending a lot of money already😞Hope there is still cure n miracle for that disease!
