#16 ALS with Brooke Eby

At the age of 29, Brooke received a devastating diagnosis. After four years of confusing symptoms in her leg, Brooke Eby was diagnosed with ALS in March 2022. She hopes to spread awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to as many people as possible and laugh along the way. Brooke has appeared as a guest on the Today Show, interviewed by Savannah Guthrie. You can also read the essay she wrote for the Today Show.
