What is MND?

Motor Neurone Disease is a wasting disease. It attacks the nerves that control movement in different parts of the body. There have been advances in research in recent years which gives hopes that prevention or cure may be found. I am raising funds that will contribute to research and support of sufferers in the Bournemouth area. For more information see MNDA HQ site and the local branch at East Dorset and New Forest MNDA branch. For details of the ride follow this link: Paris to Geneva. This will be in memory of my mother and Ruth's father, both of whom suffered with MND.

Never say "I'm OK"

I will learn one day. I have another four sessions with Amy, the Personal Trainer. When the question is asked "How are you feeling?", you never reply "I'm OK". Even if there are no aches or pains, it is best to make some up or else you will end up being asked to do things that do make you ache. So yesterday evening I found myself on the rowing machine again, followed by various exercises that nearly puuled my arms off, or made the shoulders ache. But I have to confess that, really, I was OK. Just hope Amy doesn't read this ..
