Washington D.C. – Actor Eric Dane, widely recognized for his role in "Grey's Anatomy," has publicly affirmed his commitment to battling Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), declaring he will fight "until the last breath." Dane's powerful statement comes amidst his ongoing advocacy efforts in Washington D.C., where he joined the I Am ALS organization to champion increased federal funding for research into the neurological disease.During his visit, which included an appearance alongside Congressman Eric Swalwell, Dane emphasized his profound personal motivation. "I have two daughters," Dane stated, "I want to see them... gradually college, get married, maybe have grandkids. I want to be there for all that." This deep personal connection fuels his determination to raise awareness and secure resources for the ALS community.Dane also shed light on the significant diagnostic hurdles faced by individuals with ALS. "ALS is the last thing they want to diagnose anybody with," he explained. "So often it takes all this time for these people to be diagnosed, well then it precludes them from being a part of these clinical trials." He stressed that broadening access to clinical trials is crucial for advancing treatment and finding a cure. The I Am ALS organization, with Dane's support, aims to accelerate research and ensure that patients receive timely diagnoses and access to vital medical advancements.
