O.J. Brigance was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclorosis, or more commonly known as ALS on May 16th, 2007. This disease currently has not cure. Brigance has beaten the odds and is now 10 years and going strong from the disease. According to an article from WFSB.com, he will hold a celebration tomorrow.
