Show Notes

Today I am joined by Katya Old from Motor Neuron Disease New Zealand, and Darren Bidois - a former New Zealand indoor cricket rep who was diagnosed with MND on his 58th birthday to peel back the layers of Motor Neuron Disease's impact in New Zealand.

This is a relentless condition that knows no borders. Learn about the vital lifelines provided by organizations like MND New Zealand, and immerse yourself in the stories that underscore the resilience of those affected, like Darren.

Darren candidly shares the everyday realities of living with MND. His journey is not just a battle with physical decline but a testament to the power of positivity and mental fortitude. Darren's experience is a beacon of hope and strength for many, as he and his wife, his indispensable caregiver, tackle the daily challenges with unwavering determination. 

Join me in honouring the human spirit's capacity to fight and to find light, even in the darkest of times.
