MND

[PSumbler]

What a complete b*stard of an illness.

My MIL started being treated for it back in March after a series of falls that eventually they put down to the onset of MND. Now completely wheelchair bound, complete loss of legs and one arm with the other one fading fast.

Exceptionally hard to watch and heartbreaking to watch the FIL and wife go through the pain of how life can change in a complete instant.

I’m sorry to hear this awful news and I 100% concur with Cooperman about being there for them as much as you can. I lost my dad a month ago after a short battle against cancer, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer at the start of April and passed 7 weeks later, fortunately he didn't suffer a great deal.
I took a month off which I spent with him and my mother before he passed. We didn’t expect to lose him so quickly, but we were comforted by the fact he didn’t suffer.

Wishing you and your family all the best.

I lost my Mother in the November of 2021 with a disease called PSP it is on a similar spectrum as MND, bloody awful disease.

I wrote that post on 23rd June.

On 24th July (yesterday) my MIL fell asleep for the last time in the afternoon. We are grateful that she did not suffer as much as she potentially could have but how life can change so quickly. A dreadful dreadful disease (as I said in the OP a complete b*stard of an illness) that has taken away a wife, mother, grandmother and aunty in such a short period of time)

RIP Anne, we will never forget you
