Hello, my name is Lesley Roberts and my husband Christopher, who was a farmer, was diagnosed with MND on May 5th 2014, sadly he lost his courageous fight with this awful disease on September 5th 2015. I wrote this blog to share our journey as a family with this disease, the good days and the bad days and hope to raise awareness of MND in the process.

No.7.Being normal
Chris came in at the end of the day yesterday beaming, he`d been out more hours than he should and his speech was dreadful, a sure sign he had done too much , even if it was just tractor work, but the thing is he was happy. Who am I to say he shouldn`t do it ? His future is going to be very different and sometimes living for today, doesn`t necessarily mean fulfilling buckets lists or travel to far flung places, it means living each day as you did, before MND cast it`s shadow over our lives, just doing the normal stuff and sticking two fingers up to it. I know there are a lot of brave people out there fighting this disease and I`m adding Hubby that list.
