For context, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also referred to as Motor Neurone Disease (MND) or Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a degenerative neurological disorder that attacks the nerve cells controlling voluntary muscle function.

The condition deteriorates motor neurons, causing muscle weakness, atrophy, and eventual paralysis.

ALS can impair speech, swallowing, and breathing, often leading to respiratory failure.
