Annabella talks about her own personal experience of caring for her husband Danny, who is living with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) and the challenges and experiences involved in supporting a loved one through this cruel and relentless disease.
She discusses the impact of his diagnosis and the subsequent effect it has had on their daily lives, as well as on her own mental health and wellbeing, but also the moments of joy they have shared together.
