    young parents

    Are there any young parents on here who would like to chat and share ideas tips and advice on parenthood when you're locked in?

    What do you mean by "locked in", Ben - it can mean different things to different folk - are you in bed 24/7 or up and about in a chair using eye gaze, for example?

    • I am guessing that it took Ben some considerable time to write his sentence. If there are any young parents out there with MND, please contact Ben.

          Although I'm not so young now, I was once 😏 When I was diagnosed at 38, my kids were 3 and 5. They are now 17 and 19, so were reared by me and their wonderful dad.

          Are you Ben G-----? I follow posts on social media by someone similar to you, mostly because you/he was same-ish age as me at diagnosis.

          Love Ellie.

            Am I the only one who thinks that the original question was a bit creepy? 🤨

                • Well done Ellie. All people visiting this forum quite understandably have problems and it's important that they are not compounded.
