Description

Motor Neurone Disease is a cruel affliction that gradually strips away independence and dignity, leaving both sufferers and carers trapped in a devastating cycle. This book chronicles one couple's harrowing experience with the condition, revealing its brutal physical and emotional impact. The authors' journey also exposes the darker side of the British state, as they navigate the bureaucratic labyrinth of local authorities and the NHS. The COVID-19 pandemic serves as a stark backdrop to their struggles, highlighting the challenges of fighting a terminal illness in a system often seemingly more concerned with procedure than compassion. A portion of the book's royalties will support the MND Association, a cause that is all too often overlooked despite its importance. This book provides a powerful and thought-provoking account of one couple's battle against MND, as well as the often-overlooked obstacles they faced in their fight for care and support.
