With a Little Help

April 19, 2024

It's now Friday afternoon and I'm settled into my London accommodation. Members of the team are running around London getting the final pieces of admin done ahead of Sunday. Everything seems to be going to plan and one of the only things left to do is get round the course!

Staying away from home with late stage MND is an absolute mission. Specialist accommodation is massively rare so I stopped looking for accommodation that has everything I need a long time ago. Instead I find places that have enough space and hire or travel with all my equipment. To give you an idea my packing list for this trip had 76 items on it...

Of course I can't physically help to pack any of that, and trying to control too much of the process is a very fast path to massive frustration. However its not easy to let go when so much of that equipment is essential to keeping me alive and cared for, I need to have a lot of trust in my care team and thankfully I do.

Then of course there are the people who will physically push me around the London Marathon. Taking responsibility for my care at the same time. Not only do they have to be physically fit enough to comfortably run 26.2 miles, they have to monitor me and provide any interventions I may need. Distance running is traditionally a solo pursuit, taking on responsibility for me as well is a heroic effort in my view.

Then there are the people who organise the administrative side, the logistics and the publicity. Making sure all my equipment is where it needs to be, everyone has their accreditation, and that we raise some cash for research and care too.

In total that covers around 12 people. The vast majority of whom are unpaid. Those who are paid receive a fraction of what they deserve (that's a whole other blog post) and go above and beyond to help me a

ttempt these ridiculous challenges. Those 12 people are just the tip of the iceberg, my family, friends, trustees and of course all the amazing people who follow and support the charity all have my heartfelt gratitude.

I don't really know how I've created this incredible support, or why so many people are willing to give up their time and energy to support me and the charity. It's beyond anything I hoped for or anticipated when we started Stand Against MND and I'm humbled by it.

It gives me the will to carry on, a purpose. Helps me maintain a positive attitude whilst being assaulted by the most brutal disease. Thank you. Every single one of you.

If you feel inspired to help us fund more vital research, you can donate here.

Thank you so much for reading.

Hello everyone! I’m thrilled to share my husband’s remarkable journey! Two years ago, he was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) at Patton State Hospital in California. It was shocking news, and the doctors informed us there was no cure. They gave us medications to help manage symptoms, but after a year and two months, his condition started to decline, leaving us desperate for alternatives.

Two months ago, I discovered an amazing article about a herbal healing center in Africa that offers incredible herbal remedies for various ailments, including ALS! Filled with hope, I reached out to the herbal doctor via email to order the ALS herbal remedy. To our joy, we received it in just six days!

My husband started using the remedy immediately, consistently taking the ALS herb tea, healing oil, and applying the herbal cream prepared by Doc Yare three times a day for three weeks. And guess what? It worked wonders! His slurred speech has vanished, he can eat without a G-tube, and he walks freely without any support. He is completely healed! We’re overjoyed and sharing our story everywhere!

If you or someone you know is struggling with ALS, MND, MS, MSA, FSHD, Aphasia, or Stroke, I wholeheartedly encourage you to contact Doc Yare! His expertise in God’s life-saving herbs is truly extraordinary—he is a true blessing! You can reach him at dryareherbalcurehome@gmail.com or call or WhatsApp him at +2348164653711.

Feel free to contact me at gleidyzcarlos@yahoo.com if you want more information! Let’s spread hope and healing together!
