I’d buy a Me Mongo t-shirt for $20.

I said before a friend of mine’s husband dies in less than a year from aggressive ALS. It isn’t pretty.

In that first picture, Jet, they are watching a taped message from Steve Gleason

So I went looking for the Me Mongo t-shirts and they aren't available. I did find plenty of Team Mongo t-shirts, but those are other sites and any money spent won't go to him/his care. So be wary. This is the site that he said (in the Trib) is his site...

https://teammongo76.com/

Right now everything is sold out.

It's such a devastating affliction. A close friend's mom lasted about five years before succumbing a couple years ago. Ugh.

I'm hearing Mongo is on a ventilator and will not likely make it through the year.

Can somebody let shakes know? He’s usually got the inside track on former Bears dying. I guess Ditka is just going to have to get in line now.

Yeah when you are fat you have to keep your original chin up to help hide the other three.

My friend's husband died last year or so from ALS so I see a lot of event posts. This pic was being used to raise money or sell tix for an even to help Mongo.

I think we all have an idea of what ALS does. I don't think that picture is helpful. I definitely wouldn't want to be remembered that way.

I think he's showing he's going to fight until the last breath. Not something 99% of us would do.

There's two diseases(that I know of anyway) that I would stick a gun in my mouth while I could, and McMichael's is one of them.

You sure about this? His wife posted it on her instagram page two days ago.

Then the event or fundraiser snipped it and used it. I only saw it on Facebook or else I would copy it.

Looks like he is still able to communicate, see the feeding tube and vent, he's a strong guy, but hoping he has clearly communicated when he wants to stop supportive measures and pass on his own terms at home.
