Eric Dane spoke about the challenges while shooting with ALS
Earlier this week, In Good Morning America, Dane further spoke about the obstacles he faced while shooting with the disease.
“I have one functioning arm. My dominant side. My left side is functioning, my right side has completely stopped working,” he said before adding that his left is slowly deteriorating. “It's going. I feel like maybe a couple few more months, and I won't have my left hand either. It's sobering.”
ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a rare degenerative disease that leads to the progressive paralysis of the muscles.
