Ady Barkan's Inspiring Story
In 2016 Ady Barkan was diagnosed with ALS, an incurable disease that robs him of basic abilities most of us take for granted. Instead of surrendering, Barkan fought back by launching a crusade for public healthcare. His inspiring story is told in the new documentary "Not Going Quietly." Bianna recently spoke with Barkan, who had a tracheostomy in 2019 and now communicates through voice software.
