MND is kicking my butt today. I’m in hospital at the moment fighting a pneumonia and the beast just might get me this time. I’m not ready to go, I still have so much left to do, but I might not have a choice this time.
In over 6 years with this disease I’ve never asked for a single cent for my own personal care or for my family, it’s always been about funding research and trying to find a cure so other families don’t have to go through what we have. But I need your help this time. MND has devastated my family, and I am such an emotional, physical burden on my family. It’s not fair on them. This disease has attacked my dignity and threatens to have one last undignified impact. Funerals are ridiculously expensive. My family is in debt, my beautiful wife works four jobs, and we have difficulties paying the mortgage. I won’t be here to provide for my family and look after my boy, I hope that you will all consider giving generously to help my wife and son. Please help put me in the ground so my boy has somewhere to visit me.
Dear Melissa,
We are thinking of you and your family at this time. You and Ian are such an inspirational couple and have made a great contribution to raising awareness and supporting people with MND. This is truly wonderful legacy for Ian.
Best,
Quenelda & Tristan

Heartfelt condoleances from the Netherlands. I've worked with Ian to fight MND, he inspired me and our team and I was very impressed by his dedication and friendlyness. All the best, Ellen

If I had more to give I would give so much more. To you and all great causes like this. An extraordinary life taken too soon. I’m so so sorry for your loss.
