Brooke Eby's 'Living Breathing Diary' Reveals Raw Truth of ALS Battle

In a poignant and unfiltered video, Brooke Eby, who lives with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), has shared her deeply personal experience of the disease's progression. Eby, connected to a breathing machine and visibly affected by paralysis, described her body's decline as feeling like it's being slowly encased in cement. "I absolutely hate being paralyzed," Eby stated, explaining how she has lost nearly all physical function, save for some finger movement and facial expressions. She expressed the constant physical discomfort and the emotional toll of knowing her condition is likely to worsen over years. Challenging the societal pressure to always be grateful, Eby admitted, "I don't feel grateful for shit right now." She characterized her video as a "living breathing diary," drawing a parallel to Tom Riddle's diary from Harry Potter, and invited viewers who relate to her struggles to engage in the comments. Her candid account offers a rare glimpse into the profound physical and emotional challenges faced by individuals living with advanced ALS.
