Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive, incurable condition that involves wasting muscles. There are about 5,000 people with MND at any one time in the UK. The cause remains a mystery and there is no cure. The third edition of this book updates treatments and resources to help those diagnosed live life to the full. It covers the emotional effects for the whole family, and explains the vital role of the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
