The passing of actor Eric Dane at 53 has reignited a difficult but necessary conversation about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
The actor, best known for his roles in Grey’s Anatomy and Euphoria, lost his life less than a year after revealing his ALS diagnosis to the world.
He had spent the last few months of his life raising awareness for the rare degenerative disease, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.
