NDTV
The mother and son duo danced in front of a crowd of about 130 guests at Ever After Farms Blueberry Wedding Barns in Florida, US.
In an emotional moment captured on camera, a mother who lost the ability to walk after being diagnosed with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) was able to dance with her son on his wedding day with the help of his brothers.
Zak Poirier and his mom, Kathy Poirier, went viral after the son shared a video of the heartwarming moment on Instagram. In the caption, Mr Zak informed that his mother was diagnosed with ALS just before he graduated from law school. Now, marking another big milestone in his life, the son made sure that his mother's ALS wasn't going to affect his wedding.
“Despite not being able to stand on her own, my mom and I shared a dance at my wedding. She inspires me everyday to be humble, kind and selfless,” Mr Zak wrote in the caption of the post.
