Zac Brown Band's John Driskell talks to GMA about his ALS diagnosis.
As for what his future in music holds, Hopkins will continue to do whatever he can to keep it a part of his life."If I can't pick up a guitar, then maybe I can program one," he explained."I don't think music will ever not be a part of my life. Even if it's just making a mixtape."
Hopkins is hopeful for the future of technology when it comes to ALS, which is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord causing the loss of muscle control. "There's a lot of hope in this and there's a lot of wonderful technology on the horizon," he said."Amazing things happening all over the country and all over the world to eradicate this and to heal motor neurons."
Surrounded by his bandmates, Hopkins announced his diagnosis over the weekend on social media with a call to action for fans to support
