Gleason Page #2
live in a historic neighborhood.
Are you a New Orleanean?
It's a city that I love.
I'm very thankful for all that
has come to me through
this city.
Is it okay with you,
the fact that you're kind of
synonymous for one play?
You played nine years
in the NFL.
You were on the Saints team that
won the first-ever playoff game.
Look, if you gotta pick one
thing that you're gonna
be known for,
that is fine with me.
And before we go,
his Number 37 jersey
for this segment.
But he won't put it on.
I wear my jersey on the field.
Those days are done.
So I've been having
going on with me recently.
I've been having some
muscle twitching in my arms.
Mostly my upper arms,
shoulders on both sides.
And some in my chest,
in my back,
a little bit in my upper legs.
I then also talked
to my naturopath,
concerned about it.
It could be some type
of molecular problem,
or it could be some type
mechanical problem,
meaning my neck or my head
have some type of trauma.
I have a bulging disc
or a ruptured disc
or calcification
in my vertebrae
from all my football trauma.
Thirdly, it could be some
type of neurological disease,
a disease that he mentioned
as--
Obviously the worst-case
scenario would be ALS,
which is Lou Gehrig's disease.
I have been diagnosed with
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,
which is a disease
in the motor neurons.
And this disease is--
kind of frustration or anger
And I just was like,
there's no-- There's no way.
He's telling me this,
but I don't necessarily
believe what he's saying.
Although this is part
of the challenge,
like, yeah, I wanna beat ALS,
I want to win that part
of the game,
But for me, the biggest
part of the game is
beating all the other sh*t that
you and I have talked about is
karma from our parents
or relationships with family
or relationships with friends
or your own spirituality
and just peace in your heart.
But I just think
there's a bigger
battle there
about being able to say,
"Okay, I have been--
I have this diagnosis,
and it's not gonna--
even if it does crush,
you know, crush my body."
I think you look
really cute today.
I haven't smelled you,
but you look really cute.
STEVE:
I wish I could
zoom in on that.
Damn.
Is it hard not to tell?
I know it's a boy.
STEVE:
And I know it's a girl.[CHUCKLES]
But I know more.
Yeah... right.
Before this,
we wanted a baby,
and after this,
