My hard broke a little when I saw how thin his arms were and how miserable his condition is in this video. Nowadays, even though the disease has progressed further, he looks much better and more stable.

The saddest thing is that he is 51 and had ALS for more that 30 years now and if theres ever a cure then he will totally have to re learn everything not just playing guitar but also walking talking etc... Sadly its always the legends that get stuff like this like beethoven who lost his hearing, the guitarist bumblefoot who got in a car crash and couldnt even talk for a while, and buckethead who has an unhealable heart diseas which makes it hard for him to walk.

Hate to be simple, but he was very nice and pleasant. Thankfully, he never came off as arrogant to me, everyone I knew wished him success once the rest of the world knew about him. Like when the solo albums came out, that was really cool, then the David Lee Roth gig. Good times. I didn't have the heart to go to a party for him when he first got the diagnosis. A lot of his friends got together to wish him well and I didn't want to get in the way of his close friends/family. Nice guy.
