'It Impacts Literally Everything that I Do': Woman Shares Journey with ALS
Friends and family are raising money for her care and accessibility needs as ALS limits daily tasks and awareness events are planned across the community.
- After nearly two years of tests, 27-year-old Hannah Broermann finally learned the cause of her body stiffness: ALS, a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting voluntary muscle movement.
- Just two years ago, Broermann and her husband, Logan Chowning, were celebrating their new marriage and home; the diagnosis forced them to adapt to a progressive condition.
- Despite her diagnosis, Broermann continues serving others through her work with Meals on Wheels, stating that ALS "impacts literally everything that I do, from brushing your teeth to putting on your shoes."
- Friends and family established 'Hope for Hannah,' a grassroots effort to help cover medical expenses and accessibility costs, even reviving the Ice Bucket Challenge using an excavator and water.
- Next week, Broermann will throw a ceremonial first pitch at the Cincinnati Reds' Lou Gehrig Day celebration at Great American Ball Park, with a benefit fundraiser scheduled July 18 at Badin High School.
