The MND Association's new advert has been banned from TV as it is 'too shocking'.
My mum died several years ago from Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Sadly, 5 people still die from the disease every day in the UK and at any one time there are around 5,000 people living with disease across the country.
It is the MND Association's 30th anniversary this year and it is working hard to both raise awareness and find a cure. I think it is great that they have a billboard awareness campaign on the London Underground and at mainline stations across the UK from Monday 15 June.
Their advert has been screened free in selected cinemas and yes it IS shocking. But so is the disease. You can judge for yourself by watching Sarah's story at http://www.sarahsstory.org.uk/.
The advert was created with the help and support of people currently living with MND. It has no cure and as the disease kills the motor neurones (the message carriers from the brain to our muscles) so the person loses mobility, speech and most things we take for granted.
Please help me to raise awareness for the MND Association by watching the advert and then telling 5 of your friends and asking them to tell 5 of theirs -either by email, Facebook, a blog or Twitter.
Thank you so much for spreading the word and helping us to free the world of MND.
