Team Gleason was incredibly generous when my sister-in-law was suffering with ALS. Please support Team Gleason by contributing or simply by sharing this video to help raise ALS awareness.
He's out lived most people who have ALS most reports are 2-5 years after diagnosis. Steve is amazing his wife is Awesome. And The Saint's are the best ever!
"It's not going to be easy, but it's going to be awesome." That really says it best. I hope I can live with the enthusiasm, optimism, and strength that you exemplify. You are someone your kid can be proud of. We're all rooting for you Steve. You are truly an inspiration.
What an inspiration you are! I've been a nurse for 38 years....and the determination that you have to live with what you've been dealt in the most positive way...nothing short of amazing. And the fact that your wife and family have sacrificed some of your most precious hours so that you could share your time with your fans ...and allow you to try completing your bucket list....what a saint! Keep your spirits up...we love you
I had to pause the Microsoft ad that is running during the Olympics. I was so taken by the closing shot of the little boy in his dad's lap and the adoring look on dad's face. I paused the ad to get Steve Gleason's name and found my way to this -- "The Steve Gleason Story". What an inspirational story. As amazing as Steve's play in the Super Bowl game, his story is still being written and I, for one, am privileged to have come across it. I love his promise "to smile, laugh, cry and love for every breath that remains in my body." Steve still "signals hope", as this video said in reference to his play in the big game. All the best to Steve, Michelle, and Rivers.
Steve has such courage. My dad also has ALS and has been diagnosed since may 2011. My dad is also a fighter and is battling every day all day. We are from Louisiana and Steve you know that we are all fighters. Keep up your strength and courage.
Let God bless people with all disease stay strong steve, I watched that play and it inspired me to make the high school Football team and well I did thanks steve thanks and let God be with you
Also, Steve you have the best thing anyone can ask for in life with Michel. It is obvious that she is there to stay for the right reasons and is happy to have you in her life. You are a lucky man to have her, she's one of the good ones. Good luck.
I wish I could vanish this disease is heartbreaking in a matter of months it takes away so much I hope and pray doctors can find a cured and god can give this doctors the miracle to have the cured that can save tons of lives.
We are getting closer to the first treatment for als. Brainstorms nurown is going into phase 3 trials. Its a stem cell treatment that slows down disease progression and restores some function too.
We were at this game with my son that had Leukemia. Fucking awesome game!! Little did I know I would be diagnosed myself at 33 with stage four breast cancer a year later. Steve Gleason is more than inspirational!!! Love you, Steve!
Such a touching story, I cried through the whole video. What a strong and brave couple. To see them coping with this terrible disease, and yet keeping their wonderful sense of humor, is a beautiful thing. God Bless them both.
Beautiful story! We love you steve and may GOD bless your fight and take on your struggle and lengthen your days here on earth! #team new Orleans saints!
Instinctively,my first response on hearing about the radio dj's using Steve Gleason as a punchline on a "morning zoo"type of program was anger and a strange sense of protectiveness over a former NFL player.After watching this video,I feel differently.Watching him handle the earth-shattering news of a degenerative disease with maturity,grace and poise showed me that this Man doesn't need our sympathy,protectiveness or anger toward a couple of low-life radio puppets.He is a great man.Much respect.
Eric Edny, and Dr. Steenblock are two other tags for u tube. It is amazing the progress modern medicine has made for stroke victims, and victims of parkinsons & multiple sclerosis; and have yet to gain ground for ALS. I have ALS, so I know: it will kill you virtually in your tracks - if you let it. Diet (the foods you eat) is a very important factor with progressive neurological diseases, and for all diseases for that matter. The information is out there, but few dr.s' gear 'studies' toward this factor of food and how it affects the human body. This is ony a factor of preservation, but I believe it would lead to hunting the cause.
Every day we have to be grateful to the creator to be healthy, even if we do not have a lot in life . What a man and his courage. GOD bless him and his family
Your forgiveness of the two' mayhem masters' was class defined. After watching this video and learning ogf the work you've done post-NFL, I think I would fire those two before the next commercial break. In my prayers.
WOW, touching story, can't stop crying. He has not given up, this is encouraging to us all. My Jesus Christ give you strength & peace to you and your family. My heart and prayers goes not to you.
My dad died of ALS in 2006.. He was a hard worker and built all of our homes and several homes for other people and an aviation hangar. A friend's husband died of ALS who also worked hard outside all his life. She believes ALS affects some people, especially men, that have used their muscles all or most of their lives in hard, physical, labor intensive, jobs or careers. My dad was a veteran and he wanted to die at home and our family took care of him until the end. ALS is a horrible, progressive, debilitating disease. Speech and swallowing goes when the muscles of the throat are affected. All muscle groups eventually are comprised, usually the heart and diaphragm are the last to go. Sadly, the coroner documented dad's death as 'coronary', and the VA, who had diagnosed his ALS and been taking care of him, denied my mother of any benefits. She lives below the poverty line and is on a fixed income. We attempted to appeal, but the VA said what the coroner wrote on the death certificate would be the final word. There was no further appeal per the VA.
Im a hardcore Falcons Fan, and although i despise the Saints, i have more respect for Steve than i have for my team. What a great guy, i dont even usually get sad at stories but wow this hit me hard. I wish i could one day meet Steve, what an absolute hero.
I like the saints Steve is a trooper Steve keep up the fight als is a painful and sad Dessie's my grandpa has it and its sad to see people with this dieseses he and let's find a cure for als 2013
I noticed that there’s a lot of athletes have ALS that has something to do with the muscle in the brain and a lot of football players and athletes get it bodybuilder salsa, or people that are very highly involved in sports that’s not a coincidence
How can you NOT admire,respect,root-for Steve Gleason????!! He defies[ed] nearly EVERY stereotype of the professional athlete! And for a PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE to be as "grounded/modest/humble/educated" as Gleason is, and then to see him afflicted w/ ALS,...well,...that REALLY SUCKS! Hope you're doing as well as u possibly can be Steve!! Good riddance to those IDIOTS from 790 ZONE!!
all my Love to you all , Jehovah God psalms 83:18, has great plans for us- His Creation! satan and Adam and eve changed those plans , through rebelliousness, but Jesus sacrifice brought back that plan, and purpose, and it will not be long until Gods purpose for the new Earth is revived, n put into place as we see through creation and bible profecys, tangible signs!!! God will give us eternal life right here on new earth , mathew 5:5- -psalms 37:29-34,. the earth was not made for nothing and God has nothing to do w people dying, in horrible ways, Jesus died so He could buy back what Adam and eve did to mankind, and lost us through sin, , n soon God's Purpose will be fulfilled, and even the dead will rise very soon, john 5:28,29. so please hold on to this ,its not merely a dream or wish but reality, my own father passed from als. I am waiting anxiously for his awakening from Jesus right here on a restored new earth, daniel 2:44. much love to you and your family....
There IS a form of ALS that is not inherited. NOW, regardless of his medical condition, if this couple want children, they have every God given right to do so. It's a dream to have children to pass down your family ancestry and have live on through you. Don't EVER tell ANYONE that it's inhumane to have a child with a terminal illness. That's a heartless and cruel opinion to even express! SHAME ON YOU!
@@denisemontgomery5600 Wow what a God given gift it is to potentially become a carrier or a sufferer of a terminal illness! Gee wiz and don't forget "muh genes" which are so important to pass on...
@William Jennifer don't peddle your false hopes and dreams to people desperate for a cure. There is NO cure for this disease, take your quackery ideas and go away.

God Bless you SG and your Family!
The most amazing spirits seem to have the hardest journeys...💜
Steve Gleason and Michel have had another child and he is alive at 42 years old. That makes me happy as he is quite a man.
God bless. I am a Catholic and remember you with my daily recital of the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.
The man is brave and respected and I am glad his wife is standing by his side even though the bad times and taking care of him .
What a great man loving his child so much to make his child home videos for his child to have memories of his father .
Definitely touched by this....we take life for granted...i wish Steve longevity for him to enjoy his son
That is so sad how progressed this disease had taken over him so quickly... My heart goes out to this man!

I have very few people who I would call Heroes...Steve is one.
No White Flags.
WOW, touching story, can't stop crying. He has not given up, this is encouraging to us all. My Jesus Christ give you strength & peace to you and your family. My heart and prayers goes not to you.
ALS is so devastating. So unfair man. He was 35…. Im 33. He can’t even do anything for himself and he should be thriving right now. Wow.
Amazing young man.
This is a real hero
its a shame humanity is based on greed, all these things have a cure or can be cured but sometimes if there is not alot of demand not many care...
its 2020 and he is still fighting. Was just given an award in the senate
Im crying!
Un luchador, dentro y fuera de la cancha.

I noticed that there’s a lot of athletes have ALS that has something to do with the muscle in the brain and a lot of football players and athletes get it bodybuilder salsa, or people that are very highly involved in sports that’s not a coincidence
So sad
what an absolutely brutal disease!
This guy is jokes xD fuck this doctor I'm gonna talk to another doctor, but respect to that guy
How can you NOT admire,respect,root-for Steve Gleason????!!
He defies[ed] nearly EVERY stereotype of the professional athlete! And for a PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE to be as "grounded/modest/humble/educated" as Gleason is, and then to see him afflicted w/ ALS,...well,...that REALLY SUCKS! Hope you're doing as well as u possibly can be Steve!!

Go Cougs!
“Confined”? “Victim “? Huh…I did not get that. I saw a man living his life.
great story. Who Dat!
I'm sorry but it's very inhumane to have a child after you know that ALS runs in your family. Some might even call it inherently evil.

It's a dream to have children to pass down your family ancestry and have live on through you. Don't EVER tell ANYONE that it's inhumane to have a child with a terminal illness.

@William Jennifer don't peddle your false hopes and dreams to people desperate for a cure. There is NO cure for this disease, take your quackery ideas and go away.
