00:00I remember someone told me, you have to meet this guy.
00:02He's going to change the world.
00:06And he did.
00:08I met Brian on the 2008 campaign for Obama.
00:12Sandra, what do you look for in a gap?
00:14We've got it all, baby.
00:18We found out Brian had ALS the day
00:20we came home from the hospital with our second daughter.
00:23I had gone to a neurologist for what I thought
00:26was a standard checkup.
00:28The doctor said, on average, people
00:30live six months after they're diagnosed.
00:34Every doctor we saw said the same thing.
00:36I'm sorry, but we can't help you.
00:39The system is broken for this disease.
00:41When you're told that the world you
00:43believed you were going to live in is no longer there,
00:47you have to either choose to curl up into a ball or act.
00:52So I turned to Sandra and said, I
00:54think I want to start an ALS lab.
00:57And her response was, no.
01:00And he ignored me, like he always does.
01:03If you want to defeat ALS, you need everyone working together.
01:08They took this extraordinary challenge
01:10and said, we're going to go out and make things happen.
01:13If we're able to untangle ALS, we
01:16might be able to help others.
01:18I am in awe of Brian Wallach.
01:21He wants to give back and take care of the next person that
01:24gets diagnosed.
01:25I think I'm ready to go.
01:28I've never experienced a movement like this.
01:32It's changing history in front of our eyes.
01:34I'm no ordinary.
01:37Brian's ALS has accelerated a lot.
01:39We feel like we're running out of time.
01:42Hey, Brian.
01:44We're going to do this.
01:46There's always been a way.
01:51This guy sure worked.
01:54I don't think there's any test of the human spirit
01:57more telling than someone saying,
01:58you don't have a long time to live,
02:00and responding in this way.
02:01I am ALS!
02:03I am ALS!
02:14I'm exhausted, but this is what I want to be doing.
02:20I can't give up.
02:21Give back to yourself.
02:24I am ALS!
