Didn't know where to put this story but it's a good reminder that while we argue back and forth over Hoya basketball it is only a game.
In early May, doctors told Behan he had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the terminal neurological disease commonly associated with Lou Gehrig and the Ice Bucket Challenge. It has no cure, causes harrowing muscle degeneration and carries an average life expectancy of three to five years after diagnosis. The best treatments are emerging drugs, promising but not proved. It has ravaged Behan’s family, and it came for him at 34 years old. Only 3 percent of ALS patients are so young.
