"Meet Garrett Smith, a remarkable US Navy Veteran who defied the odds when he was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) during his military service. Doctors initially gave him a grim prognosis of six to 18 months to live, but here he is, more than six years later, sharing his incredible journey.
Despite losing the use of his arms and legs and relying on a ventilator, Garrett's indomitable spirit shines through. He harnesses the power of assistive technology to communicate, wears a smile every day, and dedicates his time to volunteering with I AM ALS to support fellow veterans facing this challenging disease.
Garrett made the life-altering decision to embrace ALS. His story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit as he continues to lead a fulfilling life, remaining a devoted father and husband to his family. Join us for an inspiring tale of hope, courage, and the determination to make every moment count."
