In a tear-jerking moment that was caught on camera, a woman with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) stood and shared a mother-son dance with her eldest at his wedding, with support from all three of her sons.

Connecticut-born-and-raised Kathy Poirier, 55, now lives in southwest Florida. She was diagnosed with the “unforgiving disease” three years ago. Since battling the disease, Kathy has lost the use of her legs and arms. Additionally, she faces some breathing difficulties, but hasn’t lost her voice yet.
