Ive been nominated for the ALS ice bucket challenge by my boy Matt Compton and cousin John Mitchell . first thing I had to do was actually Google what it actually is. Now I know a little bit about lou Gehrigs disease. About ALS: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrigs Disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons reach from the brain to the spinal cord and from the spinal cord to the muscles throughout the body. The progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to their death. When the motor neurons die, the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed. I in turn challenge Ray Longo Mike Nill and Spoon Love to help spread the word. You to must now also dump iced water on your head within 24 hours and nominate 3 others to do same. Theres a penalty if you fail to complete the challenge of donating $100 to an ALS cause.orrrrr you can be like me ams donate and spread awareness by participating in the challenge Some sites to donate: Www.alsa.org Www.room3606q4tw/#home
