ALS Advocate Brooke Eby Dies at 37 After Four-Year Battle

Brooke Eby, a prominent ALS advocate and content creator, passed away on October 1, 2026, at the age of 37. She had been battling amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for four years.

Eby was diagnosed with ALS in 2022, but instead of letting it define her, she chose to use her experience to raise awareness and connect with others who were going through similar struggles.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff expressed his grief over Eby's passing, calling her an 'amazing warrior' with a positive attitude that could melt a glacier. The ALS Network also paid tribute to Eby, thanking her for increasing public understanding of the disease and creating meaningful connections among people affected by it.

Eby's advocacy extended beyond social media. She established ALStogether, an online platform where individuals with ALS and their caregivers could exchange information, ask questions, and connect with others who understood their circumstances.
