I guess he's gonna find out once & for all if Heaven exists
“I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.” -- Stephen Hawking "What's your claim?" - Ben Gravy "Your best work is the work you're excited about" - Rick Rubin
Just last evening I was looking up ALS (watched a couple eps of 2nd season Jessica Jones). 95% of people who get ALS don't know why, 5% inherit it. Most people die in 2-4 years. Lou Gehrig survived 2 years with it.
Hawking was diagnosed with ALS at 21/22 in ~64. Dude lived with ALS for almost 60 years!
