Sopranos Actors Surprise ALS Sufferer In Hospital

An ALS sufferer was brought to tears in his hospital bed during a surprise visit by actors from his favorite TV show The Sopranos. Mike Lowe is currently unable to move due to the effects of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - the illness colloquially known as Lou Gehrig’s disease - but happy tears began to stream from his eyes as actors Dan Grimaldi and Artie Pasquale suddenly entered his hospital room. This outpouring of emotion told everyone in the room just how much the moment meant to Mike, 58, who has not been able to move out of his bed since July. Due to Mike’s condition, he can no longer produce verbal responses, but throughout the engagement, Mike was able to interact by nodding joyfully with two of his favorite stars.
