Eric Dane and his family focused on finding strength and guidance after the actor had revealed earlier this year that the diagnosis was made for him.
The 52 -year -old made the announcement in April and asked for privacy when he adapted to the life -changing news.
His wife, Rebecca Gayheart, spoke at Step UP’s 2025 Inspiration Awards and admitted that the family learns to live with what she described as their ‘new normal’.
She said she and their two daughters, Billie, 15, and Georgia, 13, turn to professional therapists for support.
Rebecca added that they just tried to continue with ‘hope, dignity, grace and love’, although she admitted that it was heartbreaking, especially for their girls.
Eric also shared how deep the disease influenced him and told Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America in June that he woke up every day, reminded his condition immediately.
Rebecca, who married Dane in 2004, said that although the diagnosis brought the family closer together, the circumstances were painful.
However, she explained that there would always be her family.
Earlier this month he announced that he is now working with the non -profit I AM ALS.
In a video message, Eric described himself as “an actor, a father and now a person who lives with ALS”, and called for urgent action to find a remedy.
