No.194. 'Some positive MND memories.'

It is sometimes easy to think that life with MND is all misery and although of course I know as it progresses life will get more and more difficult for Chris and all of us, it is important to cherish each day and make memories that are special for all concerned.

Here are a few memories from 2014, some that are ultimately MND related, but never the less special.
A month after Chris was diagnosed we held a `Bake it day` and raised over £600. We did it together as a family.


Our Ice Bucket challenge, that was fun !

Chris took his beloved Nuffield tractor to the village church fete. We managed to raise about £50 there with a MND awareness table..

We managed to raise some funds for MND, over £200 from local farmers, at our machinery sale. This is one of the many consequences of MND, the change it has had on our lifestyle, Chris in particular. This is a precious photo for Chris with his late dad.

This is us at the MND fashion show held last October which Christopher`s cousins organised. It was a wonderfu , well supported evening and it raised over £1200 for MND.


We try to look at the positives even though life has dealt Chris a cruel blow, it isn`t always easy, but memories are memories and if they create happiness in whatever way, then they are are there to treasure.
