Meet Debbie...
Debbie, mum to Jacob, Paris and Talia, was diagnosed with MND in 2022 at just 55. The charismatic hairdresser first noticed symptoms when she struggled to hold her hairdryer when working with clients. Following a series of misdiagnoses - including menopause - Debbie was determined to share her story online and support other women with MND. Passionate about raising awareness wherever she goes, Debbie decided to decorate her equipment with eye-catching bright colours and sparkles. Here, she tells us about her experiences of life with MND and the value of support.
