Memories for Gaynor and Andrew.
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Danielle and I have decided to start a fundraiser for my beautiful friends Gaynor and Andrew. We have known these for over 20 years and recently Gaynor has been diagnosed with MND. Motor neurone disease is a rare condition affecting the brain and nerves. It eventually leads to death, but some people live with it for many years.
Symptoms of motor neurone disease include muscle weakness, twitches, slurred speech and difficulty swallowing. The symptoms get worse over time.
Treatment for motor neurone disease aims to ease the symptoms as much as possible. Treatments include physiotherapy, speech therapy and medicines.
Motor neurone disease happens when cells in the brain and nerves, called motor neurones, gradually stop working. It's not known why this happens.
Gaynor has rapidly declined over a very short space of time and now has lost the use of her arms. She was only diagnosed in January and this has taken a hold.
I would like to fundraise money so that they can make some special memories together and if needed get any equipment they may require.
Any donations would help massively. This couple have been there for everyone through everything.
