Something that upsets me with the USC ice bucket challenge is that people are forgetting what it was originally for. Yes, i 100% agree with mental health, but people can get HELP for mental health. The 2014 ice bucket challenge for ALS should still be mentioned. ALS isn’t a joke nor a trend and should be recognized as an issue that needs to be dealt with. Now people see the ice bucket challenge as a trend which is why it’s important to not stop talking about ALS.

💰Donate to help Ted Hunter with ALS💸 ❤️Updates On My Current Health Status - 2/25/25

🙏I had a positive visit at the Duke University ALS Clinical this week, with my ALSFRS-R scores remaining stable across most areas, including mobility and daily function. However, my lung capacity has declined, placing me at a critical juncture in my health over the next six months. If my breathing capacity decreases further, I will need to undergo surgery for a feeding tube.

Unfortunately, my current assisted living facility at Brookdale is unable to accommodate residents with feeding tubes. To ensure a seamless transition when the time comes, I have already begun searching for a skilled nursing facility that can provide the necessary care. I understand that this next level of care will come at a higher cost, but my priority is to maintain a life of quality, dignity, and well-being.

I ask for your continued prayers and support. Ted Hunter

Eric Dane ALS Diagnosis: Inspiring 1st Red-Carpet Comeback

Eric Dane ALS diagnosis headlines a story of grit and visibility: the actor’s triumphant 18 June “Countdown” red-carpet walk—his first public outing since disclosing the progressive motor-neurone disease in April—signals that he will keep acting, keep advocating, and keep inspiring. Eric Dane ALS Diagnosis: A Red-Carpet Return Rooted in Resilience At Los Angeles’ Harmony Gold Theatre, the 52-year-old Euphoria and Grey’s Anatomy star arrived in an all-white suit, posing alongside co-stars Jensen Ackles and Violett Beane. “I feel good,” he told Variety, adding that the premiere was a chance to celebrate months of hard work and to prove that ALS has not dimmed his creative spark. His optimism echoed comments to Good Morning America, where he said staying on set “keeps me sharp” even as the disease has already taken full function from his right arm. Production on Euphoria Season 3—now officially under way—will accommodate Dane’s changing mobility, a testament to inclusive filmmaking and the industry’s growing commitment to disabled talent. The red-carpet appearance, captured by People and other outlets, reminded fans that determination, not diagnosis, defines his narrative. Understanding ALS: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Explained ALS is a progressive neuro-degenerative disorder that destroys motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, gradually stripping away muscle control, speech, swallowing and, eventually, breathing. Median survival remains three to five years from symptom onset, though individual trajectories vary. Current therapies slow—but cannot yet halt—progression, which underscores the urgency of ongoing research and clinical trials led by organisations such as the ALS Association care, from insurance gaps to providers unfamiliar with queer health needs. Dane’s public candour spotlights those overlaps and adds celebrity weight to calls for better funding, faster drug pipelines and stronger social-support networks. Eric Dane ALS Diagnosis and the LGBTQ+ Community’s Response Though Dane is a straight ally, his work on Euphoria—a series praised for its nuanced queer storytelling—has earned him a loyal LGBTQ+ audience. Fans point to his vulnerability about bodily change as a mirror of queer resilience: identity forged in adversity, and authenticity broadcast on-screen. Community leaders note that Dane’s visibility elevates conversations about disability justice—an often-overlooked thread in broader equality movements. At Enola.gr we’ve chronicled similar stories of queer icons navigating health challenges; explore our Health & Wellness archive for deeper context and resources. How Eric Dane Manages ALS While Maintaining His Career Dane’s management plan blends medical care, adaptive technology, and unwavering family support. He credits wife Rebecca Gayheart—“my stalwart supporter,” he told GMA—with helping him navigate daily logistics. On set, producers coordinate lighter shooting days, mobility-friendly staging and flexible call times. Physical and occupational therapy sessions fit between rehearsals, while mindfulness practices bolster mental health. Crucially, he refuses to sideline passion projects: “I’m going to keep doing what I love,” he declared on the carpet, a statement echoed in interviews with Entertainment Weekly and People. Such resolve dismantles outdated notions that disabled performers must retreat from the spotlight. Eric Dane ALS Diagnosis in Context: His Diverse Screen Legacy Long before Euphoria’s Cal Jacobs, Dane earned nicknames like “McSteamy” as Dr Mark Sloan on Grey’s Anatomy (2006-2012). Film fans recall his turn as Multiple Man in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), while TV viewers followed him through five seasons of The Last Ship (2014-2018). His latest project, Countdown, debuts 25 June on Prime Video and casts him opposite Ackles in a tense Los Angeles thriller. Each role showcases the range that he now channels into advocacy, proving that artistry and illness can co-exist powerfully.
