Horrible illness. Poor guy and I also feel sorry for his family.

 

[BillJ]

I wish him the best of luck fighting the disease.

 

[The Wormhole]

Shit, that's terrible.

 

[Lt.Smokey]

Devastaring disease. Hope there are some treatments soon. One is in a phase 3 trial.

 

[Takeru]

I wish him the best of luck fighting the disease.

There's no fighting this, you'll just get worse and then you die.
Worst disease ever, no one deserves this.

 

[Tosk]

Holy shit. ALS at age 45. That really sucks.

That is sad to hear! My thoughts are with him and his family...

 

[urbandk]

He was stellar in every role. Devastating news. My thoughts are with him and his family.

 

[F. King Daniel]

That's heartbreaking news

[Cyrus]

Horrible news, it’s basically a death sentence. He seems to have the right attitude. Spend a lot of time with family and enjoy his life during whatever time he has left.

 

[antinoos]

He seems to be enjoying himself. Here he is at the Star Trek Cruise, under way as we speak.

Terrible news

 

[cultcross]

That's really heartbreaking news, that's a horrible disease and he's a lovely guy, met him in Birmingham.

 

[Vger23]

That's awful. I've liked him in a number of things, going all the way back to the TV series Jericho.

I thought he really threw himself into the Klingon thing during DSC, and seems like a great guy. Every thought and prayer are with him and his family today.

 

[XCV330]

its horrible I feel terrible for him

 

[DEWLine]

Whatever the best can be for him now, I hope he gets it. My thanks to him for his work.
