Eight days after he was rushed to a New Lenox emergency room, former Bears defensive end Steve McMichael went home Friday night.
McMichael, a member of this year’s Pro Football Hall of Fame class, has ALS and can’t talk or move on his own. His wife Misty feared last week that he had pneumonia and called an ambulance. Doctors diagnosed him with a urinary tract infection, gave him three antibiotics and expected him to go home soon.
