Actor Eric Dane is opening up about living with ALS. In his first television interview since revealing he has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, Dane, 52, recalled the symptoms that led to discovering his diagnosis about a year and a half ago.

"I will never forget those three letters," Dane said. "It’s on me the second I wake up. It’s not a dream."
