Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page in memory of my mum.

As you know my mum has now passed away ( 2nd Oct 2010 )After her brave year and a half battle with Motor Neurones Disease.

MND is very rare and there is NO treatment or Cure.

Image your sat in your wheelchair with your children around you.... You can't hug them, It takes everything you have to mumble their names. You can't kiss your grandchildren or comfort them if they cry.

You can smell  nice food as it cooks and you know everyone else can eat it but you get your food via a tube into your tummy as you may choke if you eat.

Imagine knowing and understanding EVERYTHING everyone says (  MND doesnt affect the brain ) but you can't answer back your daughters have to TRY and talk for you.

Imagine knowing there is nothing anyone can do except watch you get worse and one day die...

That is how my mum has lived for the past year and a half and it has broken our hearts to watch her. She was so brave she not ONCE cried in front of us.... Not once complained

That is reality for people living with MND.
