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 the bad days and hope to raise awareness of MND in the process.

No.21.Precious moments.
We had our usual Sunday roast today. Our girls were chatting about music and films, the funny videos they`ve watched on YouTube and it was lively and fun. Precious family time together. Chris does what he always does, he eats and listens to the chatter, I join in, we all laugh, it was lovely, a slice of normality, a time to forget about MND for a while. Momentarily I suddenly thought about being alone one day, regretting that Chris and I won`t grow old together, but then I dismissed it and closed the door on that thought again. Chris hasn`t gone anywhere yet and hopefully won`t for a long while. It is easy sometimes to be so worried about what will be that you can`t enjoy the here and now, so for us this is what living for today is all about, enjoying those precious family moments and taking what life has dealt us, one day at a time .
