The story behind viral video of son dancing with mom who has ALS at wedding l GMA

She raised her boys so well. You can just feel the love and care for their mom. This is so heartwarming ❤️

[@marjorjorietillman856]

Yes, that’s beautiful when you raise them from boys to responsible men, and not spoil them like many women do! They pay you back by becoming productive and wonderful men like these sons are to their mom!! I love it! 🥲

[@anupamaramesh7070]

Exactly my thoughts! And these men will have the heart and courage to treat all the other women with respect and compassion too! Bless the family!

Made me think of my mother. A grown man is always his mother's baby no matter what. You can see him become her baby while holding her. It's sad to know that ALS will take her life, but she definitely has a great outlook on life.

[@sandramorey2529]

A few years ago our vibrant neighbor was diagnosed with ALS. We watched as he deteriorated, but for us the hardest part was watching his wife of 40 years desperately trying to get help and to learn how to help and support him. She is now a support person for others with ALS. Kathy is not only still beautiful, but her intelligence shines through this. It hits the young. Her sons are remarkable and I want to thank them for posting this video. Kathy, I love your dress. You look great in it. I hope they can find a way to make this disease chronic instead of terminal.

[@reneechristopher2121]

She's very fortunate to have a supportive family. ❤😊

[@twiggyb8962]

This woman is so strong, courageous and beautiful. Her family is her strength and is why she can handle this process. When you are surrounded by a loving family, the hurdles are worth fighting to overcome. Your message gave myself and others, ALS is a terrible disease and to be made aware of the early signs. I wish you comfortable days and your family the strength to carry on your love in their hearts.

This is very touching. She was very brave for her son. They showed pure love to their mother. Thank God she was able to attend her son's wedding.
