This is a video about a man, Scott, who was diagnosed with ALS on March 10th. He was 41 years old and had a wife and 2 children. His wife takes care of him, and luckily, this is not the worst case. This video shows that you should be grateful for who you are because sometimes life doesn't turn out great. Even though it is impossible for him to ever be "normal" again, this family still has hope and will never give up the fight.
These doctors are injecting stem cells into this man's spinal cord. This will hopefully improve his overall mobility, his breathing, and his muscle strength.

This is the sign for the ALS Association
Those are stem cells. They are in the process of being injected into a man's brain or spine to increase mobility.
The image on the right is an image of a person with ALS's cell, the image on the left is a normal person's cell structure.
