SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A Marine veteran with a terminal illness had one wish. “Why does this disease have to destroy everything?”

Chris Gion asked as he broke down in tears. ALS gnawed away at his nerve cells and trapped him in his own body. He cannot eat, drink or use the restroom on his own. His wish is not for himself; it’s for his kids.

Watch the video to see his touching wish, which is not for himself, but for his three sons.
