My ma vandag gediagnoseer met MND. More 2de opinie en finale toetse.My hart gebreek om te sien hoe so aktiewe positiewe talentvolle vrou moet beheer verloor oor selfs die klein dingetjies. Bid en vertrou dat sy minder pyn sal he en dat ons nog soveel moontlk tyd met die geliefde ouma, ma, vriendin en eggenoot sal he. Wat n voorreg dat sy nog my dogtertjie se dooprokkie kon maak. Ek is so lief vir haar.Vertrou God vir krag.

Hi. My name is Melissa, My mom has MND,It has started in her hands, and now and again she gets twitches in her legs, she also gets extremely tired. Somewhere in me i believe there is hope with this disease and a cure.Why cant I believe she has this.. she's my mother, my everything,I cant just sit around and let this disease win, who has advice on what helps them. She has started ozone theraphy, and i havent seen a change as yet.I hate to see my mom like this. it started out of nowhere, and I have faith it can go back from where it came from.. I need advice and any suggestions welcome.

Sorry I put MDA on my previous email (obviously typing too fast). It should have been MND. Dad has just visited me at the office. He can't speak very well but we managed to communicate. Have a happy day.

My Dad has just been diagnosed with MDA but has been living with this disease for just over six years. He is the most caring and wonderful Dad anyone could possibly have and I am so very proud to be his daughter. I have felt so lost and confused and not really understanding this disease but now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Coming across this site as been an absolute miracle and now I can understand what Dad is dealing with and not get so irritable with him. Some days are really bad as Dad wants to just give up and I am selfish as I want him to be here forever. Thank you.

I was diagnosed MND in Nov 2007.It totally affected my upper and lower limps.I did not get any drugs but was very positive about recovery and had a lot of physiotherapy and occupational therapy.Now am almost recovered and though this disease left me with weak ankles but can walk without any aid.The question is am I not going to experience another attack.But I am still positive and I am willing to help those with hope about life.Patience need to be positive and do a lot of occupational and physiotherapy and you will surely have some significant recovery.
