A day where Casa Reynard is finally rejoining the rest of East Cambs after the morning fog. It's occasionally sunny and very still.
Slept well (mostly) although I'm still feeling meh thanks to all the heffalumps. This morning's tasks included grooming the cats and turning a whole pineapple into a tupperware full of fork-ready chunks.
Now sat here watching South Korea v Ghana while waiting to take the parental to a lunchtime appointment. More hanging around in the car, but at least I've got the radio to listen to the footy.

In short no it's not more risky or common in rugby. You're right its just more in the news. Due to high profile former players a main one beingRob Burrows and his team mates having taken to make more aware of it.
MND is genetic won't go into and is very different to repeated head injuries in sport. It become a topic at ours in the last few years as Mrs 73 did work around it for her masters so plenty of research papers and work came my way. It's quite complex so won't go into the why's and how's but it's no longer in question It's an ever growing body of evidence and research. Commonly reported as dementia in former high profile footballers. But not limited to dementia or to football
Hope that help
Mrs Tenkaykev worked as a Nurse on a Neuro ward for many years. Anecdotally, she said that one observation among her and her colleagues was that there seemed to be a correlation between how " lovely " a patient was and a positive diagnosis of MND.

During my Chemo sessions I noticed how lovely other patients and their relatives could be. Some people were seriously ill, and someone was with them all the time.
People did not really want to talk about their treatment. I had some very interesting conversations with people. For instance the daughter of one patient was working at a school, in Chile, or Peru, and he liked talking about that. Or people would talk about their garden. Despite the seriousness of the situation, there was a camaraderie.
There is always an exception. However he lived on his own after a lifetime of service in the Forces. I think he was suffering from PTSD as well as cancer.
Odd because they usually come out just fine.

I've just been to Revive My Device and had my back arrow repaired. They didn't charge me so I bought an iPhone charger lead to keep in the car. That's for passengers because I use a C type lead.
