RIP Rob Burrow

RIP. Absolutely awful disease, you really don’t have any chance whatsoever. Slowly feeling more and more trapped in your own body every single day. If it’s between this or cancer, I’d take cancer all day long.
 
Argh, knew he had such limited time but still didn't expect this.
His charity work has been absolutely amazing, hope it's contributions last as a fitting memorial.
 
Real shame. So sad to see what the disease did to someone whose family should have had him for so much longer :(

He was quite inspirational, and am sure the awareness work he did has helped people and will help people in the future - can only hope one day there will be a cure.

Sad news, I hadn't really read much about MND but wow, what a truly horrific disease. Poor guy.

Feels like maybe the worst disease you can get really, no hope for a cure, no way of stopping it, hollows you out from the inside slowly but leaves your faculties in tact. Least with cancer you have a chance, with something like dementia you're probably not aware of what is happening.

RIP Rob, you and Kevin Sinfield made a huge difference and hopefully will continue to do so.
