For Love & Life: No Ordinary Campaign

Matt Roush says...

For many, an ALS diagnosis is a nearly immediate death sentence. Not for Brian Wallach, a lawyer who learned of his amyotrophic lateral sclerosis condition at age 37 in 2017, shortly after the birth of his and wife Sandra Abrevaya’s second child. Brian decided to fight back, advocating for others afflicted by neurodegenerative diseases including ALS, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s by founding the nonprofit I AM ALS to raise awareness and funding for research. The film follows the couple’s crusade and their daily routines, accepting the challenge of living with ALS with grit and even humor.
