Earlier in the day, Gleason awoke and was struggling to breathe, the source told WDSU. He was taken to the emergency room at a Jefferson Parish hospital, and doctors performed a tracheotomy to help alleviate the problem.

Very sad stuff, and that must of been a terrible thing to go through with your father.
Do you know how long people with ALS usually live for? Aren't there some that live for a very long time?
