Very sad and far too young. MN is a terrible disease.

I cried when I heard the news - it's same wretched illness which took my DH away.

RIP Doddie. I pray to God that we find a cure in my lifetime.

It's so sad about Doddie. Thoughts go also to all those who have posted here whose lives have been blighted by MND. 💖

I’m afraid I’ve never heard of him but reading that link has made me cry…

I’ e never heard of him either.
A horrible disease and too young an age to die, very sad.
He sounded to have been a good sportsman and all round good guy.

One of his boys looks so much like him. Sorry to lose Doddie.

A difficult day for those boys (and their mum). A very sad loss.

Isn't that lovely, he'd have been so proud and rightly so.
