Glimmer of Hope for People with ALS
by Eleanor Mayfield
Sunday, May 2, 1939, will be forever remembered in the annals of baseball as the day New York Yankees' first baseman Lou Gehrig voluntarily benched himself, ending a streak of 2,130 consecutive games.
For months the once-great player's game had been in decline. His reflexes were off. He stumbled, fumbled, and struggled to hit or catch the ball. No one understood why, least of all Gehrig himself.
A few weeks after Gehrig benched ...

"'Not That Man Anymore' (A Message From Michael) " Now Available

It's an important and beautifully written work — a ...
