This decision has made me a fan of the franchise for life. To take such a powerful and dramatic performer, and give him another opportunity to practice his craft in the middle of such a devastating circumstance, is an amazing display of loyalty and courage for both the performer and the production.

[fdthornton]

This is absolutely beautiful tribute to a great actor. Live long and prosper, Kenneth.

[paulspencer]

Being put through what no one should have to go through, and finding strength in love. Would like to shake Kenneth's hand.

[sslaci]

this man is the definition of courageous nothing but love for him.

Kudos to TREK writers & actors who support him. From a physically challenged bionic sister. Hugs & blessings.

[mattboesch]

Poor guy. He is a wonderful actor and it sucks that he has to deal with ALS. Especially at such a young age.

This is why we love Trek since the beginning .
I watched it at 6 and have been there since.
The dreams and the truth of humanity being better .
These people prove it and Gene's dream

Watching this in January 2022, I am stunned at what I saw. Star Trek Discovery now means more to me than before. My brother-in-law passed from ALS (motor neurone disease) in 1980.

[sparky]

He was the physical embodiment of the spirit of Trek. And he flies now.

[StGeoRUSH]

Okay, I'm officially shook. I honestly don't know if I could face what Ken is facing with such grace and honor. I also just started binge-watching this series, and I didn't know of his condition. This video makes me love Star Trek and the community all that much more. Best of luck to you, Ken... we all love the characters that you bring to the table. "Live long, and prosper, Brother"

[lorydexcc]

I am happy to see that despite his illness he still manages to do what he loves. Live long and prosper, Kenneth.

[mikesch]

Amazing story, I had no idea. Thank you for sharing your life and talents with us Kenneth, rest in peace.

[echogl]

Such an AWFUL disease and my heart goes out to anyone e who develops this. Sending prayers for the family. RIP.

[funkyflights]

ALS is a cruel disease… I hope one day they find better treatments and hopefully a cure one day… RIP Kenneth… 😞

[justincase]

Wistfully heartwarming. I am grateful to see the cast and crew back him, and am glad he's continuing to do what he loves as much as possible. Prayers for his family, especially his two children.

I thoroughly enjoyed Discovery. It was like a fresh breath of air after a long eon of stuffiness!

[gyozakeynsianism]

This was a lot of fun to watch, and it's got a lot of heart. If some fans can't see all the life, artistry and heart in the franchise these days, they're blind.

Fearless. Goodbye Kenneth Mitchell (25NOV1974-24FEB2024).
