Last night I watched, Gleason on Amazon Prime. I think Netflix may be streaming it as well but not positive on that. This is a documentary about Steve Gleason, (New Orleans Saints 2000-2008) who was diagnosed with ALS. This doc shares his journey from game to marriage, to ALS diagnosis to the birth of their child, his relationship with his father, and much much more. It is extremely raw and down to earth. Uplifting, heartbreaking and even humorous at times. Very real & powerful stuff happening here.

Here is a youtube trailer:
