    I have a friend just diagnosed with ALS and am curious if you know about this.

    No. It is a neurodegenerative disease, sadly with a very poor prognosis. It leads to the nerves being unable to innervate muscles, which causes issues the likes of respiratory failure. A quick google will tell you all you need to know re the disease.
