@car.addition.68: Savannah Guthrie Honors Brooke Eby, Who Used Humor to Share Life With ALS When Savannah Guthrie asked Brooke Eby how she stayed joyful while sharing her life with ALS, Eby had a clear answer. “Levity is my superpower.” Now, the Today host is remembering the woman behind those words. Eby passed away on October 1 at 37 after living with ALS for years. During Monday’s broadcast, Guthrie described her as “a young woman who left a real mark on the world.” Eby began experiencing symptoms in 2018 but did not receive her diagnosis until 2022, when she was 33. That same year, she started posting videos about her experience. Her approach was deeply personal—and often funny. When she appeared on Today in 2023, Eby explained that humor helped her bring her story to others and draw attention to ALS. Guthrie said that openness continued as Eby’s condition progressed. She kept posting with the humor and spirit her followers knew. She also created ALStogether, a community for other people living with the disease. In a statement shared with Today, her father, Cliff, thanked everyone who had supported her. “Her efforts didn’t find a cure for the next Brooke, but she wounded the ALS monster,” he said. For Guthrie, Eby’s legacy included the “courage, openness, and humor” she brought to sharing her life. For others living with ALS, it also included a community she helped build.
