Shocked New starter

Hi Stonehengeman, welcome aboard. You are lucky getting to 80ish before mnd took hold of you. But it’s horrid still. You mentioned losing your voice. Did you manage to bank your voice? If not, is there a family member with a similar voice who would be willing to do voice banking for you? If you don’t know anything about this then put ‘voice banking’ in the search messages box and plenty of posts will come up to give you food for thought. I’ve got to leave off now because we’re going for a drive. I may be back later. Take care, Lynne

Thanks Ellie, I'm already on the case with a file that myself and Mrs B have put together for every stage. The local MNDA rep called this morning too. Everything seems to be moving quickly. Did you do a voice bank? Andrew

Oh I'm glad your Wingwoman is going with you tomorrow

Yes, things do move quickly at first - so many disciplines to meet for baseline measurements etc., then it eases off.

No I didn't get a chance to do voice banking - that was back in 2007, a lifetime away in technolgy years!!

I am also ex services (Army) and have only 3 years to go to get my state pension, but I have tried to make the best of what I have been given, very similar to all the postings I had in the Army. try to stay positive.

It seems Bulbar is a common theme and being one I really appreciate it. 😊
