It's good to see that he still appears to be functioning quite normally despite having the condition for nearly a year. I can't imagine being in that situation but he is handling it remarkably well. Sounds like a genuinely nice guy who is still more worried about other people than himself despite what he is going through.

And why the fack anyone would rate this one star is beyond me. Truly bizarre.

Terrible thing to have diagnosed at such a young age. I am glad he is able to spin this positive event out of it.

Didn’t realize he has a motor neurone disease. Very sad.

Diseases like this, that destroy the body, or the likes of Alzheimer’s or dementia which take the mind, are straight up horrific.

I work with folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities and something like Downs, which has a high comorbidity with Alzheimer’s is just soul crushing to witness as folks age.

Great article KLS. Motor Neurones really is a horrific disease, something I’ve seen first hand unfortunately.

As for the person who decided to 1 star this, do everyone a favour and smash your head against the wall, thanks

The article I read had a video and you can actually see that he’s already started to be affected by his hands.

Terribly sad.

Such a horrible disease. Just hope he has many years of some sort of normality before it gets very bad.

All the best to him and Rimmer as well.

Facking frustrating and sad. We need to stretch the boundaries to find cures for things like this IMO.
