My husband Richard died four years ago from MND. He is loved and missed every day, but I am always glad to find new ways of remembering him. So at the age of 81 I have on my arm my first tattoo with Richard’s words as he faced death: ‘Love never dies’. My granddaughter Iris in Australia has the same words on her leg.

I have also been inspired by Kevin Sinfield’s 7-7 challenge in which he runs 7 marathons in 7 days to raise money for MND. I am undertaking a 7-7 walk with my mobility aid of 7000 steps each day for 7 days.
