Summary
- Mike Melgarejo, a Neuralink patient with ALS, sparked disappearance rumors.
- His wife states conspiracy theories are false, citing his declining health.
- Melgarejo's family is facing financial hardship due to his illness.
Rumors surrounding Mike Melgarejo, a Neuralink patient diagnosed with ALS, suggested his disappearance was linked to the company. These whispers intensified after his social media activity ceased and a GoFundMe was initiated, stating he was "not in a good place."
His wife, Dalila, has publicly refuted these conspiracy claims, asserting that Melgarejo's perceived "disappearance" is due to the private nature of his severe health decline. She clarified that the family is navigating immense personal and financial challenges as ALS progresses.
Dalila emphasized Neuralink's consistent support and kindness throughout this ordeal. She stated that Melgarejo himself deactivated his social media prior to the implant, and participation in public updates was not mandatory, aiming to keep his health struggles private. The family's need for financial aid became public when Melgarejo could no longer work.
