An independent wrestler, Jeff Cannonball, 39, who has competed in the northeast, took to his official Instagram handle and announced that he has been diagnosed with ALS. He wrote,
“Hey everybody, as you may know I’ve been dealing with some health stuff. Well, after a year of misdiagnosis, doctors being unsure, and nonstop tests they figured me out. Unfortunately, last week I was diagnosed with ALS. It absolutely sucks and I’ve been a bit of a wreck. But my family and very few friends I’ve told have been extremely supportive. I also could not have a better wife to stand by my side through this garbage than Sam. It sucks but we’re keeping our heads up and not letting this disease suck the joy out of life. Fuck Lou and his Yankees,”
