Story
Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive disease that attacks the motor neurones, or nerves, in the brain and spinal cord. This means messages gradually stop reaching muscles, which leads to weakness and wasting.
MND can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. However, not all symptoms necessarily happen to everyone and it is unlikely they will all develop at the same time, or in any specific order.
Me and my brother Finlay are participating in this event for our dad Marcus Stewart who is currently fighting this devastating disease. As you can see above, MND is extremely cruel, not only for them but also the close people around.
If this can even bring the slightest change and positivity all together, then it’s worth it!
