Gleason - Official Trailer

The hit documentary from the 2016 Sundance Film Festival goes inside the life of #SteveGleason, the former New Orleans Saints defensive back who, at the age of 34, was diagnosed with ALS and given a life expectancy of two to five years. Weeks later, #Gleason found out his wife, Michel, was expecting their first child. A video journal that began as a gift for his unborn son expands to chronicle Steve’s determination to get his relationships in order, build a foundation to provide other ALS patients with purpose, and adapt to his declining physical condition—utilizing medical technologies that offer the means to live as fully as possible.

Steve, Thank you for your bravery my brother in law Charlie Rose was just diagnosed with ALS . This was heart breaking as it is for all families. I pray Charlie can get the help and care and the village that you have . I will be there for my sister and Charlie.
Charlie is a loving caring man and will do anything in the world for people and I hope and pray he has the drive that you do. I asked my entire family to watch your speech tonight . Thank you and continue your strength and so glad to see your son by your side and family.❤❤❤
