How Has Stephen Hawking Lived To Age 70 With ALS?

Tomorrow’s his 70th birthday, and it’s a legitimate question. His particular form of the disease is unique, and he’s outlived anyone else on record with ALS. An interesting little Reddit thread to celebrate his survival.

Another treat to celebrate his b-day coming tomorrow! Or if you have access to a wormhole or space-time disruption you can go forward to tomorrow and look at it right now.
