I feel so sorry for this family. First the best Drumer Jeff, now Mike was always humorous. God bless these people. I am a Toto fan so sad and I wish Mike that he will survive it after all. I believe and hope that will soon be a cure for his disease. All the best to you Mike.
That brings tears to my eyes, though I have seen it before...so sad that Mike is sick now too. The Porcaros are such an amazingly talented family, and I pray God will bless each one of them.
Life's a shame some times. True. Last night i had the misfortune of having an ER visit. The guy in the bed next to mine had gone out to dinner, dropped while eating and never woke up. They family came in to the ER and gathered round for goodbyes and prayer while I got to lay there and watch it all unfold. I'll never forget hearing all the crying and one of his daughters wining and wailing Oh daddy...that's my daddy. It was horribly sad. Life is a shame some times but it is what it is some times.
man this makes me soo sad... such a sweet soul... all the porcaros, but to know the struggles that hes going through right now, it just breaks my heart, especially when he says lifes a shame... however if anyone would be able to handle this with courage it would be mike porcaro. the best. the best. the best. thickest deepest groove ever.
@alboy88 - I wish I could say that he will but unfortunately the Disease he has, ALS (Lou Gehrigs Disease) is a dreadful Muscle Wasting Disease of which there is yet no cure. However, the search for one goes on and I do hope there is success in finding one. It is terminal but sufferers of this, such as Stephen Hawking (look him up) have gone on to live long lives in spite of it. Mike can no longer play Bass now, but I'd say its always in his Heart and Soul, so he'll always be a Bassist.
the best

@soeffingwhat ALS seems to be one of the nastiest destroyers of good people. Another one who has it is also Jason Becker.
