Yankee legend Lou Gehrig died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis on June 2, 1941. The illness has come to bear his name in subsequent years. In those days, little could be done for an ALS patient. A diagnosis usually meant death within 3 years. There is still no cure. Saints hero Steve Gleason was diagnosed with "Lou Gehrig's Disease" in 2011. He's not going quietly into the night...
