Janet has Motor Neuron Disease which has taken away her voice, but not her mind! Determined to receive sufficent care and support she wrote a script explaining her position and we gave some young vounteers the task of bringing it to life. Enjoy.

  • Thank you, Janet. Great instructional tool and inspirational as well!

  • Excellent educational tool. I am a student nurse and am doing a presentation on the loss of speech in MND and have found this inspiring and helpful to find out how to communicate with people living with MND

  • Thank you for that information, my aunt has motoneuron and the disease is progressing quickly so have been finding it difficult to know the appropriate course of action. I send my thoughts during this difficult time, once again thank you

  • This about explains how most of the apparent "caring" is basically well-meaning self-serving.

    I get tired, demoralised, dis-empowered and distressed during the long recovery periods to. Thanks for the words I couldn't touch.

  • Janet: Not only you are beautiful in a physically way but also spirituaslly, you're and angel!

    Lots of love your way,

  • What a wonderful video. I hope this is used as a teaching tool for carers.Janet, you're a star.

  • Wonderful video. Very informative but also very reassuring. It has helped me a great deal to better understand the condition. Thank you. And what a gorgeous helper!

  • Thankyou for this helpful video. I found it very moving and objective. Sometimes when talking with non-verbal people you want to do what's best but don't know how. Now I see!
