I was on offshore powerboat racer for many years, the pounding received is unrelenting even in relatively smooth seas, I suffered compressed and fractured discs in my spine. Also some severe head trauma / concussions from playing Rugby and a couple of motor vehicle accidents, I believe they are all contributing factors to my MND (ALS).

Thanks for the welcome Dagmar, I look forward to getting involved with the forum. Information from a pALS perspective is thin on the ground in Australia, (no disrespect to the MND Association) they do a marvelous job supporting pMND. Thanks again for the welcome.
