Lou Gehrig's "Luckiest Man"


A closer look reveals this illustration is handwritten with Gehrig's famous "Luckiest Man" speech, where he announced his retirement from baseball due to ALS, later named Lou Gehrig's disease. A portion of proceeds from all Lou Gehrig sales benefits the Lou Gehrig Society and Project Main Street.

 **Fun Fact** The original Lou Gehrig word art was purchased by Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum in NYC's Times Square!

    I was diagnosed with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in 2024 at 61. I felt like my life had been placed on a countdown. The weakness, slurred speech, and muscle loss progressed quickly. Rilutek (riluzole) and other medications given by my doctors did very little to help me. The medical team did even less. My decline was rapid and devastating. My arms weakened first, then my hands and legs. I was wheelchair-bound. My feet hurt horribly on the foot pedals. Around January of this year, a family friend told us about the LIMITLESS HERBS CENTER and their successful ALS/MND herbal treatment. We visited their website and ordered their ALS/MND Formula, and I am excited to report Within two months, I noticed more strength in my limbs, clearer speech, and a feeling of stability I didn’t have in months. Most of the symptoms stopped, and I’m able to walk and ride my treadmill again. I feel very fortunate to have learned about the ALS/MND formula. We got the treatment from limitlesshealthcenter .com.

    Robert, I can truly relate to your story. My husband has also been battling ALS, and for a long time we felt like we were running out of options. After starting the program with NaturePath Herbal Clinic, we’ve noticed such encouraging changes his energy has returned, his mobility has improved, and he feels more like himself again. Seeing him regain hope and confidence has been such a relief. I’m deeply grateful we found this natural approach as well.

    My husband left me for another woman a few months ago and ever since then my life has been filled with pain and agony because my husband was my first love whom I have spent my entire life with. A friend and also a colleague from work told me he saw some testimonies of a spiritual counselor called Doctor Muna, He can bring back lover within some few days. Ridiculously, I laughed it out and said I am not interested. But for friendship’s sake, she consulted this God sent man on my behalf and to my greatest surprise, Immediately after 12 hours, my husband called me for the very first time for over 7 months saying “I miss you babe and I’m so sorry for everything I made you went through” I couldn’t say a word but cried over the phone and hanged up. We are back together and living Happily together again. To be honest, I still can’t believe it, because it’s highly unbelievable. Thank you DOCTOR MUNA for bringing back my love and also to my SELFLESS FRIEND. Laura, who interceded on my behalf. For anyone who might need help of this wonderful spiritual counselor, here is the email address: marvelspelltemple@gmail.com, Also add him on WhatsApp: +2347035449257
