ALS took Holley Broughton鈥檚 voice, but not her ability to express herself. She uses her clothes and accessories to say 鈥渟ee me.鈥�
Holley found a fellow fashionista in her doctor, Richard Bedlack 鈥� the founder of Duke University's ALS Clinic 鈥� who wears studded leather jackets, intricately designed rhinestone suits, and other fabulous fashions aimed at bringing joy and hope.
Dr. Bedlack and Holley have joined forces with a design class at North Carolina State University to create adaptive fashion for people living with disabilities that impact their motor functions. Sam Pearce leads the class and joins Holley and Dr. Bedlack in conversation with Due South guest host Celeste Headlee.
